What Are Scleral Lenses And What Conditions Do They Treat?
Scleral lenses help patients with irregular astigmatism, keratoconus, and other corneal irregularities that aren’t fully corrected by standard contacts or glasses. Scleral lenses have a pronounced arch; this arch creates a space between the lens and your cornea, which is filled with saline for comfortable wear. Their design helps protect and hydrate the cornea by maintaining a fluid layer between the lens and the eye.
Though you may be struggling with poor vision, headaches, or glares, our optometrist can help. In fact, many local optometrists specifically refer irregular astigmatism patients to our office for treatment. Visit our Huntsville, AL, practice to see if scleral lenses are a good fit for you.

Struggling to find contacts or eyeglasses that actually improve your eyesight? Living with unresolved astigmatism symptoms? Our team can help, starting with an eye exam. Once we've assessed your vision, potentially diagnosed your condition, and measured your eyes, we can guide you through your scleral lens options.
It could finally be time to enjoy excellent vision without the halos or eye fatigue you're used to. Huntsville patients with conditions like myopia, hyperopia, and irregular astigmatism can enjoy improved vision by contacting our team or by calling:

Regular Astigmatism vs. Irregular Astigmatism: Understanding the Differences
Patients with astigmatism have an atypically curved cornea, which can cause refractive errors. There are two main types of astigmatism. Treatment options will depend on which type of astigmatism you experience.
Regular Astigmatism
You may have already heard of astigmatism, a frequently-diagnosed eye condition. It occurs when your cornea is unusually curved. These curves occur at 90 degree angles. Astigmatism can be corrected when you wear prescription glasses or contact lenses.
Irregular Astigmatism
Sometimes, the curves in patients' corneas do not occur at 90-degree angles. People with irregular astigmatism often need specialized contact lenses or, in some cases, surgical correction.
Reasons Behind Irregular Astigmatism
/
Irregular astigmatism has many causes. Some cases may be linked to physical damage or a transplanted cornea, while others may result from medical conditions like keratoglobus or keratoconus. Certain cases have no determined cause. Additionally, it takes specialized testing to determine if your astigmatism is irregular. Each patient is different, and we can work with you to figure out the best course of action.
