Specialty Contact Lenses

Contact lenses are popular for their comfort and convenience, and because they give those who wear them a chance to look their best. Specialty lenses are also available for those with certain cornea conditions. Specialty lens examinations and fittings are among the vision services available from Summit Eyecare, located on Merlin Drive and Pancheri Drive in Idaho Falls, and also serving Pocatello, Rexburg and St. Anthony, ID.

Special Eye Conditions

Your eyes can suffer from many afflictions, including myopia, or nearsightedness, and hyperopia, or farsightedness. Astigmatism can also affect your eyes and cause blurry vision. However, some vision disorders are more unique. Keratoconus reduces vision through the bulging of the cornea, the transparent surface of the eye. Dry eye syndrome is a problem related to insufficient lubrication of the conjunctiva. Although conventional contacts can be used for hyperopia or myopia control, specialty lenses may be needed for those who experience cornea conditions. Our eye doctors can diagnose your condition and help you decide on the best course of action regarding treatment.

Considering Specialty Lenses

There are certain contact lenses made for specific cornea conditions. One type, scleral lenses, work differently than conventional contacts by the way they rest on your eyes. Scleral lenses accommodate irregular cornea shapes. Other kinds of lenses can be worn overnight, when they actually change the shape of your cornea to correct a vision irregularity. Some lenses combine the durability of hard contacts and the comfort of the soft variety. Custom lenses are also available for unusually large eyes or for severe refractive disorders, when regular contacts will not correct astigmatism or are insufficient for hyperopia or myopia control.
