You may be a good candidate for specialty contact lenses if you:
Have dry eye syndrome that makes regular lenses uncomfortable
Have corneal scarring or irregularities
Have been diagnosed with keratoconus (a progressive thinning and bulging of the cornea)
Have experienced an eye injury
Have a peripheral corneal thinning disorder
Have tried other types of lenses but found them intolerable
Have received RK surgery and experience fluctuating vision throughout the day
At Bright Sight Optometry, your trusted Redlands optometrist, Dr. Justin Ogoy, will carefully evaluate your eyes to determine which lens design offers the best balance of clarity, comfort, and eye health.
Rigid Gas-Permeable (RGP) Lenses
RGP lenses are small, durable lenses that allow oxygen to pass through and reach the eye. They often provide crisp, sharp vision for patients with irregular corneas or high prescriptions. Because they help the cornea hold its shape, they can reduce distortions caused by certain eye conditions while keeping the eyes healthy and hydrated.
Scleral Lenses for Keratoconus & Dry Eye
Scleral lenses are larger than standard contacts and rest on the white part of the eye (the sclera), vaulting over the cornea entirely. This design creates a fluid-filled layer between the lens and your eye, which provides better comfort for patients with dry eye and allows for stable, clear vision in cases of keratoconus, corneal scarring, RK-related vision issues, or post-surgical eyes.
Ortho-K Lenses: A Non-Surgical LASIK Alternative
Ortho-K lenses are a unique, non-surgical option for patients who want freedom from glasses or daytime contacts. These gas-permeable lenses are worn overnight and gently reshape the cornea while you sleep, giving you clear vision throughout the day without corrective lenses.
Think of Ortho-K as being similar to LASIK, but without surgery. The effects are temporary and fully reversible, making it a great choice for patients who want to be spectacle-free during the day but are not ready—or are hesitant—to undergo surgical procedures. Ortho-K is also a proven treatment option for slowing the progression of childhood myopia (nearsightedness).
