RGP and Scleral Lens Fittings in Colorado Springs
What are Scleral Lenses?
Scleral lenses have revolutionized the world of vision correction. These large, gas-permeable lenses vault over the cornea and rest on the sclera, the white part of the eye. Scleral lenses offer a protective reservoir of fluid that constantly bathes the cornea, making them an excellent option for various eye conditions.
Who is a Good Candidate for Scleral Lenses?
Scleral lenses are an excellent choice for individuals with keratoconus, irregular corneas, post-corneal transplant, severe dry eyes, and other corneal irregularities. If you have struggled to find suitable contact lenses in the past due to these conditions, the expert team at our Colorado Springs office is here to help. Dr. Chelsey Nolasco specializes in custom scleral lens fittings, ensuring a perfect fit and maximum comfort tailored to your needs.
What are RGP Lenses?
Rigid Gas Permeable (RGP) lenses are another type of specialty contact lens that offer unique benefits. RGP lenses maintain their shape on the eye, allowing for precise vision correction. They are known for their exceptional durability, ease of handling, and ability to provide clear vision for a wide range of refractive errors.
Who Should Use RGP Lenses?
RGP lenses are an excellent option for individuals with astigmatism, nearsightedness, farsightedness, and presbyopia. If you've been told in the past that you are not a good candidate for soft contact lenses, RGP lenses may be the solution you've been seeking. We will assess your unique visual needs to ensure optimal visual acuity and comfort.
