What Are the Symptoms of Dry Eye?

Dry eye is a common problem among older adults. It is a condition where your eyes do not produce enough tears to lubricate them. The tears may also be of low quality so that they do not nourish the eyes properly.


Dry Eye Starts Younger Than You Think

Dry eye syndrome once presented strict demographic characteristics. Many eye doctors could identify patients with this condition by simply glancing around their waiting rooms. They could also identify them in the exam.


How Can Scleral Contacts Improve Vision Compared to Soft Contacts or Glasses?

Scleral contact lenses are hard specialty contact lenses. The rigid gas permeable (RGP) contacts are larger in diameter than regular contacts. This feature allows the lenses to vault above the eye cornea without touching it. This helps ensure a more comfortable fitting for some patients.


Am I a Candidate for Scleral Lenses?

Scleral lenses are specialty contact lenses. They help when other contact lenses do not fit. This is because they are large in diameter. They are also gas permeable, meaning that they allow oxygen to flow to the eye. They sit on the white part of the eye (sclera) and arch over the cornea. This creates a space between the cornea and the back of the sclera. This space encourages a tear film to form, helping hydrate the eyes.

Others live with the condition and learn to bear the eye discomfort due to a lack of understanding of treatment options.
