Scleral lenses are highly beneficial for individuals suffering from keratoconus, a progressive eye condition characterized by thinning and bulging of the cornea. These specially designed lenses offer a solution to the visual challenges faced by people with this condition. By providing a comfortable and stable fit on the sclera, or the white part of the eye, they create a smooth and even surface for light to enter the eye. This helps to correct the distorted vision caused by keratoconus. Moreover, scleral lenses provide excellent hydration to the cornea, preventing dryness and discomfort. They also offer protection against debris and irritants, reducing the risk of infections. With their ability to enhance visual acuity and improve overall eye health, scleral lenses have become a reliable treatment option for keratoconus patients.
