Scleral topography and its usefulness in scleral lens fitting
African Vision and Eye Health, 2021 Background: Scleral lenses are one of the best options to manage corneal irregularities and severe ocular surface diseases. As scleral lenses rest on the sclera, scleral topographical data are necessary when fitting these lenses.

Profilometry. Using Corneo-scleral topography for scleral lens fitting
The Eye, 2019 The world-wide use of scleral contact lenses has dramatically increased over the past 10 year and has changed the way that we manage patients with corneal irregularity. Successfully fitting them can be challenging especially for eyes that have significant asymmetries of the cornea or sclera.
