When your eyes need a different approach.
A specialty contact lens conversation begins with your history and what you need to see well for.
Specialty contact lens consultation
When a standard lens has been difficult.
Scleral lenses are larger rigid lenses that vault over the cornea and rest on the white of the eye. They may be considered for some irregular corneas, including keratoconus, or other difficult fittings. An evaluation is needed to decide whether they are appropriate.
Tell Dr. Hartman what has been difficult with glasses or previous lenses and which tasks matter most to you.
What to expect
A careful fitting, followed over time.
- Review your eye health, previous lenses and vision goals.
- Measure the eyes and discuss whether a specialty lens evaluation makes sense.
- Assess trial lenses when appropriate and teach insertion, removal and care.
- Plan follow-up and explain fees before you decide.
A specialty fitting can involve several visits. Comfort, vision and suitability vary. Call for a scleral lens consultation rather than selecting a routine online exam slot.
