How special contact lenses affect mental health
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at whether PROSE or scleral lenses can improve mental health in people with certain eye surface conditions. It may be a good fit if you have a dry eye or related disease and are considering these lenses.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests a medicated eye drop (lotilaner) to treat eyelid mite inflammation (Demodex blepharitis) in people who wear PROSE scleral lenses. It aims to see if the drops safely reduce symptoms like redness, itching, and blurry vision.
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.
This study looks at people with diseases of the eye surface (the clear front part of the eye) to find out which factors predict how well their vision will be after treatment. By joining, you help researchers learn more about these conditions and what may affect visual recovery.
This study looks at how soft contact lenses fit on the eye and how their power affects vision. It may help you if you wear or want to try soft contact lenses.
This Phase 3 study compares two topical (applied to the eye) treatments to reduce inflammation-related irritation in people who wear a permanent eye prosthesis. It may help if your prosthesis-related eye discomfort is ongoing despite basic care like artificial tears.
This study tests a new 'smart' contact lens that may help people with Stargardt disease see better. You will wear the lens for a short time so the team can check how well it works and how comfortable it feels.
