Improving scleral lens fit with advanced imaging
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study tests whether using advanced imaging can help make scleral contact lenses fit better for people with certain eye conditions. If you have keratoconus, an irregular cornea after a transplant, or severe dry eye and have struggled with other lens types, this may be for you.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Aged 18 or older
- Have keratoconus, an irregular cornea after a transplant, or severe dry eye disease
- Have tried and could not tolerate soft or rigid gas-permeable contact lenses
- Willing to attend all study visits and follow the treatment plan
- No active eye infection, inflammation, or history of herpes in the eye
- Not pregnant or breastfeeding
- Not currently in another clinical trial that might interfere with this one

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests whether a special wide-area eye scan (OCT) can help fit scleral contact lenses more accurately. It may help people who need scleral lenses because of certain cornea shape problems or after past eye surgeries.
This trial tests a special contact lens that uses a tiny opening to improve vision for people with presbyopia (age-related reading blur) or with keratoconus (a cone-shaped cornea). The lens aims to make both near and distant objects clearer without surgery.
This study tests whether a special eye scan called OCT can better identify causes of irregular cornea shape. Results may help doctors sort out different cornea problems so treatment choices, like certain procedures, can be more targeted.
This study follows people with or at risk for keratoonus, a condition where the cornea thins and bulges. It aims to improve early detection and understand how the disease progresses.
This trial tests two different laser-based procedures to treat keratoconus, a condition that weakens and bulges the cornea. The goal is to see which approach better strengthens the eye and improves vision.
This study tests a procedure called Xenia corneal lenticule in people with severe keratoconus or severe post-LASIK corneal thinning who want to avoid a corneal transplant. It aims to improve vision while checking safety and how well the new procedure works over time.
