Scleral Lenses


 The latest development in the world of contact lenses is the scleral lens. The sclera is the white part of the eye surrounding the clear cornea. Scleral lenses ride on the sclera and vault over the cornea. This unique contact offers some special advantages for those with corneal problems; keratoconus causes the cornea to be distorted. Hard lenses covers up the distortion and provides good vision. However, a standard lens rides on the cornea and, for many, is very uncomfortable. The scleral lens provides both the vision and the comfort.

The Zen Lens by Bausch and Lomb is especially designed for easier fitting and practical use. Problems like corneal scaring, corneal transplants, and dry eyes can be greatly eased with the Zen lens.
