Scleral Lenses in Safford, AZ
A smooth, hydrated surface for irregular corneas.
Scleral lenses in Safford, AZ, custom designed and fitted for keratoconus, severe dry eye, and corneas changed by surgery.
How scleral lenses work
Large-diameter, rigid gas-permeable lenses designed to vault completely over the sensitive corneal surface and rest on the white of the eye (the sclera). This creates a fluid-filled reservoir that continuously hydrates the ocular surface while providing a smooth optical interface. This design addresses visual distortions caused by keratoconus, severe ocular surface disease, or post-surgical corneal irregularities.
Who scleral lenses help
Keratoconus
Smoothing out the visual distortion caused by a thinning, bulging cornea.
Ocular surface disease
Keeping a severely dry surface hydrated under a fluid-filled reservoir.
After surgery
Correcting corneal irregularities left behind by previous procedures.
Every fitting starts with a 3D map
The Oculus Pentacam guides every custom fitting, generating a three-dimensional topographical map of the corneal surface to ensure accurate lens alignment.
