If you’ve tried contact lenses in the past and they didn’t feel comfortable or didn’t work the way you expected, you’re not alone. Some eyes require a more customized approach. Scleral and hybrid lenses are for these situations. By using advanced fitting techniques, we can create contact lens solutions that offer improved comfort, stability, and vision.

Scleral Contact Lenses
Scleral lenses rest on the white part of the eye (sclera), creating a smooth optical surface over the cornea. This allows the lens to vault over irregularities while holding a layer of moisture against the eye.
Scleral lenses are an excellent option for patients with dry eye, keratoconus, or irregular corneas. By maintaining a consistent tear layer, they can improve comfort and clarity throughout the day.
To ensure an accurate fit, we use advanced corneal and scleral mapping technology, including Pentacam profiling, allowing us to design lenses that align with your eye.
Hybrid Contact Lenses
Hybrid lenses combine a rigid center with a soft outer skirt, offering the clarity of a hard lens with the comfort of a soft lens. This design provides stable vision while improving overall wearability.
We fit SynergEyes hybrid lenses, which deliver consistent performance for patients who need sharper vision without sacrificing comfort.
Advanced Fitting Technology
Accurate measurements are essential when fitting specialty lenses. Using advanced imaging technology, we evaluate the shape and surface of your eye, allowing us to design lenses that fit more precisely.
Candidates for Specialty Lenses
We often recommend scleral and hybrid lenses for patients who haven’t had success with traditional contact lenses. If lenses have felt uncomfortable, unstable, or haven’t provided clear vision, there may be a better option.
These lenses are especially helpful for patients with dry eye, keratoconus, irregular corneas, or higher prescriptions.
