GVR Scleral lenses

The young woman standing on my left is Soraya, a keratoconus patient who recently visited our practice from Mexico City. Soraya was diagnosed with keratoconus about 4 years ago. Before visiting us 2 years ago, Soraya struggled with blurred vision. 2 years ago we fit Soraya with GVR Scleral lenses which have allowed her to see clearly and comfortably. Last week Soraya visited us for her annual eye and vision examination. Both of her corneas have remained stable as has her vision. A small change in the scleral lens design was made to improve Soraya’s comfort. As the years go by I expect Soraya’s corneas to remain stable. However, as with everything in life, vision can change. If and when this takes place we will make the necessary changes to her scleral lens prescription to make sure that her eyes and vision are clear and that she remains comfortable with her lenses. Standing to Soraya’s left is her mother. What a joy it is for me to see the smile on their faces.
