Experience Unmatched Vision

Scleral lenses are a revolutionary type of contact lens designed to cover a larger portion of the eye than conventional contacts. They are made of gas-permeable material and uniquely designed to rest comfortably on the sclera, the white part of the eye.
Unlike traditional contact lenses, scleral lenses don't make direct contact with the cornea, making them an ideal solution for various eye conditions.

Discover the Comfort of Scleral Lenses in Calgary

Scleral lenses are highly customizable and can be used to treat various eye conditions, including astigmatism, keratoconus, and irregular corneas. They are also an excellent option for people with corneal transplants and severe dry eye syndrome. The design of scleral lenses provides a protective space above the cornea, which can help to reduce irritation and discomfort caused by other types of contact lenses. They are also less likely to move around on the eye, providing more stable vision than standard lenses.

Our offerings include guidance on removing scleral contact lenses, ensuring you can comfortably and safely take them out at the end of the day. We also provide instructions on how to insert scleral contact lenses correctly to maximize comfort and effectiveness.

What are the Advantages of Scleral Contact Lenses?

Enhanced Size for Stability: Their larger diameter ensures they stay securely in place, significantly reducing the risk of accidental dislodgment.

Corneal Vaulting: These lenses create a protective vault over the cornea, thus eliminating any direct contact and enhancing comfort.

Personalized Fit: Custom-crafted based on precise eye measurements, scleral lenses offer a tailor-made fit, ensuring optimal comfort and excellent visual quality.

Tear-Filled Reservoir: Scleral lenses contain a tear-filled reservoir between the lens and the cornea to provide optimal hydration and optical clarity. This soothing environment promotes ocular healing and superior comfort for easy all-day wear. Cleaning scleral contact lenses is straightforward, and our team will guide you through the best practices to maintain their cleanliness and effectiveness.

Who Can Benefit from Scleral Lenses?

Scleral lenses are especially beneficial for:

Keratoconus Patients: They provide stable and clear vision by comfortably vaulting over the irregularly shaped cornea.

People with Dry Eye Syndrome: Scleral contact lenses maintain a moisture reservoir, relieving dryness and irritation. People with

Irregular Astigmatism: Scleral lenses help achieve clear vision by correcting the irregularities in the cornea or lens.

Those with Severe Refractive Errors: High prescriptions are no longer a problem, as scleral lenses provide clear and sharp vision, regardless of the degree of nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism.

Patients with Ocular Surface Diseases: Scleral lenses offer a more comfortable and effective management option for conditions affecting the cornea.
