4 Benefits of Scleral Contact Lenses

  • Cost-effective

    Because they're custom fit, the cost of scleral lenses is usually higher than standard contact lenses. However, because sclerals last up to 2 years, they're more cost-effective in the long term.

  • Eye protection

    Sclerals are larger than other types of contacts, which allows for better protection from debris, dust and allergens that may irritate or injure your eye.

  • Extra-stable vision

    Their extra-large diameter keeps the scleral lenses centered and steady on your eye. If you play sports or have an active lifestyle, their size, shape and customized fit will prevent them from popping out of your eye.

  • Superior hydration

    Scleral lenses form a pocket that fills with artificial tears as they vault over your cornea. This lubricating cushion provides an extremely comfortable wearing experience for all-day hydration.

With scleral lenses, you'll experience vision comfort and excellent optics like never before!


Scleral Lenses FAQs

Do scleral lenses help with dry eyes?

Scleral lenses can provide immense relief to dry eye patients.

These custom-designed lenses vault over the cornea and rest on the scleral while avoiding the irritated cornea. The liquid reservoir between the lens and the cornea provides a continuous moist environment that protects the cornea and provides relief for those with dry, itchy and burning eyes.

Are scleral lenses more comfortable than standard contact lenses?

Scleral lenses are custom-fit to your exact corneal measurements. This, along with the lenses’ extra-large size, makes the lenses both extra-comfortable and extra-stable on the eye.

Does insurance cover scleral lenses?

This will largely depend on the type of insurance you have. Not all insurances are the same. Some plans will cover the exam and the lens fitting, but will not cover the lenses themselves. Others will agree to pay part or all of the cost, but usually, after other treatment options have been exhausted.

Excellent experience. From the initial phone call to set up the appointment to the exam to the check... out process. The entire staff was friendly and put me at ease. A+ experience!

The office staff is really nice, they actually help me pick out my glasses. And my time spent with t... he doctor was quick, but he was precise, listen to any questions I had, and offered feedback. I’ll definitely recommend the office to friends and return in the future.

Ducklo Eye Care was recommended to me by my specialty ophthalmologist. Now I see why. Dr. Solomon is... great,. She's personable, professional, and caring. Whereas most optometrists feel their job is over once they write the prescription, Dr. Solomon spent time with me discussing lenses And frames that would suit my lifestyle. This was so appreciated And lacking in so many past experiences of mine. The Ducklo staff are great. They are all nice and caring. My lenses seemed to be a bit expensive, but I haven't bought them in a few years so I'm probably mistaken. Overall, I'm telling my family to go to Ducklo!

Dr. Lavanya Tammareddi was wonderful! I went in as an emergency visit for a pretty bad corneal abras... ion and she was very helpful and took my injury seriously. Nobody at the office made me feel like a burden even though they were super busy and I’m sure my emergency visit messed with their schedule. Thanks to her above and beyond care, my eye healed up great!
