Recently, scleral contact lenses have been used to treat keratoconus. These gas permeable lenses are larger than soft contact lenses causing them to sit on the white part of the eye called the sclera instead of the cornea. This makes for a much more comfortable contact that doesn’t pop out when you blink. Ask us about scleral lenses —it is a time-intensive process, but the outcome is a comfortable contact lens with vastly improved vision.
