Specialty Contact Lenses

Advanced Contact Lens Solutions for
​​​​​​​Unique Eye Conditions

Some patients require specialized contact lenses that go beyond traditional soft contact lenses. Specialty contact lenses can provide improved vision, greater comfort, and protection for eyes affected by certain medical conditions.

At Wiles Eye Care, we offer advanced specialty contact lens evaluations and fittings for patients with complex visual or corneal needs.

Scleral Contact Lenses

Scleral lenses are large-diameter gas permeable lenses that rest on the white part of the eye and vault over the cornea. The fluid reservoir beneath the lens can provide exceptional comfort and vision for patients who may struggle with traditional contact lenses.

Scleral lenses are often beneficial for patients with:

• Keratoconus

• Corneal irregularities

• Corneal scarring

• Severe dry eye disease

• Ocular surface disease

• Post-surgical corneal conditions

Medically Necessary Contact Lenses

Certain eye conditions may qualify for medically necessary contact lenses because standard glasses or traditional contact lenses do not provide adequate vision or comfort.

Conditions that may benefit from specialty or medically necessary contact lenses include:

• Keratoconus

• Corneal ectasia

• Pellucid marginal degeneration

• Corneal scarring

• Severe dry eye disease

• Irregular astigmatism

• Post-corneal transplant eyes

• Post-refractive surgery complications

• Ocular surface disease

Prosthetic and Therapeutic Contact Lenses

Specialized contact lenses may also be used to improve comfort, reduce light sensitivity, or enhance the appearance of eyes affected by injury, disease, or congenital conditions.

These lenses may help patients experiencing:

• Significant light sensitivity

• Iris defects

• Traumatic eye injuries

• Corneal abnormalities

• Cosmetic concerns related to eye appearance

Personalized Specialty Lens Care

Every eye is unique. We work closely with patients to determine the most appropriate lens design and provide ongoing follow-up care to ensure the best possible vision, comfort, and eye health.

Our goal is to help patients achieve visual outcomes that may not be possible with traditional glasses or contact lenses alone.
