SCLERAL LENSES
Life-changing results

Dr. Eric Vaz enjoying his vision with scleral lenses from Orbit.

Jennifer had tried a surgical procedure called 'intacs' that was performed in South America and reduced her vision significantly. After being fitted for scleral contact lenses at Orbit, her vision was restored and she could see 20/20 again.

Karsten was unable to work or drive because his vision was so distorted from keratoconus. After being fitted for scleral lenses at Orbit, Karsten was able to return to work and legally drive a car again.

Nolan was unable to play hockey because of his astigmatism. His glasses were not compatible with his hockey helmet and they would fog up while playing. We fitted Nolan in scleral contact lenses and now his game has drastically improved. We predict he will join the NHL and be named MVP. Go Sampson!

Sahib is an insurance broker who was losing his eyesight because of keratoconus. With scleral lenses he was able to regain his lost vision and see 20/20 again.
A contact lens so advanced, it can restore lost vision.
Imagine a lens so advanced it does all this...
-
Corrects your vision, even when glasses cannot.
-
Hydrates your eyes with a liquid layer.
-
So comfortable you don't feel it because it does not touch your eye surface. (cornea)
-
Can restore lost vision and even improve it by several lines on the eye chart.
-
Cures dry eyes and other ocular surface diseases.
This lens actually does exist and it's called a Scleral lens. It was named for the fact that it rests only on the outside edge of your sclera (the white of the eye). The centre of the lens actually vaults over the cornea (centre of your eye). This thin layer is filled with pure saline, so it not only hydrates your eyes all day, but it also creates a perfect refractive medium for light to enter the eye.
The result is high definition vision with long term health and comfort like no other lens in the world.
Do you have irregular eyes or vision? Not a problem anymore with scleral lenses.
At Orbit we specialize in fitting scleral contact lenses and we prescribe them on a daily basis for our patients. In fact, we are the #1 prescriber of scleral lenses by volume in the Windsor area.
The lenses are made of an ultra high oxygen material with a special surface treatment that makes them feel wet, even when dry!
Anyone who wants the best in vision clarity, long-term health and comfort should seriously consider custom made scleral lenses. There is nothing that compares to them. If you've had trouble wearing contacts for any reason in the past — or you've been told you are not a good candidate for contacts because of a medical or surgical eye condition — scleral lenses may be the solution you are looking for. Simply book a free consultation with us to see how we can help you.
