Scleral lenses: a tailor-made solution for irregular corneas and dry eyes

Updated: Jun 4

Scleral lenses are large diameter rigid contact lenses that are placed on the sclera, the white part of the eye. They are specially designed for people with irregular corneas, severe dry eye or other eye conditions that make wearing traditional contact lenses uncomfortable or impossible.

The main feature of scleral lenses is that they create a tear-filled chamber between the lens and the cornea, which helps moisturize and protect the surface of the eye. In addition, their larger size ensures better stability and increased comfort compared to traditional rigid contact lenses.


Scleral lenses are personalized to perfectly adapt to the shape of each eye, ensuring optimal correction and maximum comfort. They are particularly recommended for people suffering from keratoconus, pellucid marginal degeneration, dry eye syndrome or who have undergone a corneal transplant.


If you suffer from an eye condition that makes wearing traditional contact lenses difficult or are simply looking for a more comfortable alternative, scleral lenses might be the ideal solution for you. Do not hesitate to consult an eye care professional to learn more about scleral lenses and determine if they are right for your needs.
