A Gas-Permeable Scleral Contact Lens for Visual Rehabilitation
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1990We evaluated the use of a highly gas-permeable, fluid-filled scleral lens for patients with diseased corneas for whom conventional contact lens strategies failed. Fifteen patients were successfully fit with individually fabricated scleral lenses. Significant corneal hypoxia, which limited the use of previous polymethylmethacrylate scleral lenses, was ...

Assessing Scleral Contact Lens Satisfaction in a Keratoconus Population
Optometry and Vision Science, 2016ABSTRACTPurposeTo assess perceived comfort and related experiences of adapted keratoconic scleral contact lens (17–18.2 mm) wearers with a history of wearing other contact lens modalities and to compare these subjective clinical effects with previous experiences.MethodsTwenty-four keratocones were recruited, signed an informed consent approved by the ...

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1975
A large area of conjunctiva and a smaller area of full thickness sclera eroded immediately adjacent to the edge of a soft contact lens. The soft lens was worn to protect the epithelium of a corneal graft in an alkali-burned eye. The conjunctiva-sclera necrosis appears to be a complication of a distorted and tightly fitting lens.

Corneo-scleral limbal changes following short-term soft contact lens wear
Contact Lens and Anterior Eye, 2017To assess whether short-term soft contact lens wear alters the anterior eye surface.Twenty-two neophyte subjects wore soft contact lenses for a period of five hours. Topography based corneo-scleral limbal radius estimates were derived from height measurements acquired with a corneo-scleral profilometer.

The Management of Refractory Dry Eye With Semi-Scleral Contact Lens
Eye & Contact Lens: Science & Clinical Practice, 2018Abstract: We presented a case of refractory dry eye management with semi-scleral contact lens. Dry eye was associated with facial nerve (cranial nerve VII) palsy as a result of cerebellopontine angle tumor surgery. She was treated with several topical treatments and punctal plug. Despite the treatments, her symptoms still persisted.

The unique role of scleral lenses in contact lens practice
Contact Lens and Anterior Eye, 1999The advantages and disadvantages of scleral lenses are reviewed. The indications for scleral lenses are cases where other types of contact lens fail to provide a satisfactory result. In other cases, the intrinsic nature of scleral lenses makes them the modality of first choice.
