When standard correction is not enough.
Specialty lenses can improve clarity, stability, and comfort for patients with irregular corneas, severe dry eye, high astigmatism, or changes following surgery or injury.
See who specialty lenses can helpLens options
Fitted for your cornea, vision, and daily life.
The right lens depends on the shape and health of your eye, your prescription, and what has or has not worked before.
Gas permeable lenses
Small, durable lenses that can provide crisp optics for certain corneal shapes and prescriptions.
Hybrid contact lenses
A rigid center for clear optics with a soft outer skirt designed to improve initial comfort.
Custom Soft Contact Lenses
Specialized soft lens options for prescriptions and eye conditions that need more than an off-the-shelf fit.
Built around the condition, not just the prescription.
A specialty fitting begins with how the eye is shaped, how the ocular surface behaves, and what you need to see comfortably throughout the day.
- Keratoconus
- Severe dry eye
- Corneal scarring
- Post-LASIK or RK changes
- Corneal transplants
- High astigmatism
