Introduction to Specialty Contact Lenses
Report
This smooth and regular surface focuses light back through the eye to the retina. There the light is detected and that signal is send back to the brain to understand what the eye is seeing. Unfortunately, there are many conditions such as Keratoconus (above), Pellucid Marginal Degeneration, after trauma or infection, or after a corneal surgery (transplant, LASIK, PRK, or RK) where the cornea becomes irregular and warped.
For Corneal Disease
Report
Along with hard lenses and hybrid lenses, Scleral Contact Lenses are Specialty Contact Lenses that are designed to restore vision in patients with corneal disease or after corneal surgeries. There are many situations (due to disease or surgery) where the cornea is not stable, uniform, or healthy enough for a contact lens.
Hybrid Contact Lens
Report
On the other hand, soft lenses offer incredible comfort. But with vision that is not as crisp. This is especially true of soft lenses when confronted with moderate to high astigmatism or an irregular cornea from keratoconus or other ectasia. In the center of a hybrid contact lens is a rigid oxygen permeable hard lens and attached to that is a skirt made of soft contact lens material (see photo above).
Types and Severity of Keratoconus
Report
Grading the types of keratoconus is largely based on where the area of bulging (or cone) is located on corneal topography. Topography is color coded with cooler colors (blues) being flatter and hotter colors (orange and reds) showing steepening from Keratoconus. A normal topography (above) shows a very regular and uniform corneal surface without any significant steepening.
