Specialty Contact Lenses

Our specialty contact lenses, including scleral, RGP, Paragon CRT, and Ortho-k, address vision problems that traditional eyeglasses or contact lenses can't correct.

Specialty contact lenses are designed to correct vision problems that can't be addressed by traditional eyeglasses or contact lenses.

We offer scleral contact lenses for hard-to-fit eyes caused by conditions like keratoconus, which results in the cornea thinning and bulging into a cone shape. They rest on the sclera, the white part of the eye, offering clear vision and comfort.

RGP lenses, or rigid gas permeable lenses, are another type of specialty lens we offer to help correct high levels of astigmatism and other refractive errors.

Contact Lenses for "Hard-to-Fit" Eyes

Due to the individual eye shape, certain conditions or impairments, or the aftermath of surgery, some patients are considered to be "hard to fit" as contact lens wearers.

The good news is that even these patients can benefit from the convenience of contact lenses with the various options available. This will require a specialized fitting with your eye doctor who can help you find the right match for your specific condition.

The following conditions may cause a person's eyes to be "hard to fit":

• Dry Eyes
• Astigmatism
• Giant Papillary Conjunctivitis (GPC)
• Keratoconus
• Pellucid Marginal Degeneration
• Post-LASIK or other refractive surgery
• Presbyopia (reduced near vision common in individuals aged 40 and over).
• Corneal Scarring

The types of contact lenses that may be suitable for patients with these conditions include toric contact lenses, scleral contact lenses, hard contact lenses, and rigid gas permeable (RGP) contact lenses.
