Scleral Lenses

Your glasses interfere with work but your work environment is so dusty that you are unable to wear contact lenses? You have already tested both soft and hard contact lenses and simply can't get along with them?

We have a solution for this: The scleral lens "ScleraFlex Mini"!

This type of contact lens is completely insensitive to dusty environments and offers perfect vision and perfect wearing comfort in all situations with very easy handling.

However, scleral lenses are not only problem solvers in the above-mentioned situations, they are excellently suited for correcting numerous problem situations when it comes to corneal diseases.

Scleral Lenses Are Suitable:

  • for keratoconus
  • for severe dry eye syndrome (Keratoconjunctivitis sicca "KCS" or Sicca syndrome)
  • for Sjögren's syndrome
  • for complications after LASIK surgery
  • for complications after corneal transplantation / keratoplasty
  • for PMCD (Pellucid Marginal Corneal Degeneration)
  • for keratectasia
  • to support self-healing in corneal injury
  • to prevent corneal transplants1
  • for scarred cornea
  • for corneal degenerations and dystrophies
