Specialty Contact Lenses

Specialty contact lens fittings

What I treat
Specialty fittings that work.
Scleral lenses
Large-diameter lenses for keratoconus, severe dry eye, and irregular corneas.
Hybrid lenses
Rigid center, soft skirt — the best of both worlds for hard-to-fit eyes.
Keratoconus
Custom lens fittings for corneas that won't tolerate standard contacts.
Post-surgical
Specialty fittings for corneas after LASIK complications or transplants.
"If standard contacts haven't worked for you, the problem isn't your eyes — it's the fit."
