Clinical Report: Online Photo Diagnosis: Post-Graft Alternatives to Scleral Lenses
Overview
Expand on the specific benefits of customized corneoscleral lenses compared to traditional scleral lenses.
Background
Post-graft patients frequently exhibit irregular corneal topographies that differ from typical keratoconus, complicating lens fitting. Many of these patients were previously corneal GP lens wearers and may prefer to continue with GP lenses despite the challenges. Understanding alternative fitting designs is crucial for optimizing visual rehabilitation in this population.
