Description
Yirui Zhu and colleagues ran a 2026 forward-looking study of scleral lenses across eye surface diseases. Scleral lenses are large contact lenses that vault over the cornea, the clear front of the eye. They can restore sight and ease symptoms where standard lenses fail.
Patients with cone-shaped corneas, eye injuries, corneal grafts, or dry eye were fitted with scan-guided custom lenses. Vision improved in all groups after fitting, least in the graft group. Symptom scores fell across groups. The cornea thickened slightly under the lens. About half the patients noted midday fogging of vision. Satisfaction ran high overall, though comfort lagged in the graft group. Tailored fitting is the next focus.
