I have keratoconus, scleral lenses literally changed my life. I see as if I never had any condition in my eye and your eyes feel completely normal like nothing is there. When my doctor told me that glasses wont work for you anymore I felt scared, I felt like I was ready to accept that I will go partially blind, when I put these lenses on for the first time I felt exactly like this guy in the video. Thank you for all the researchers and doctors for changing our lives ❤️
My husband has keratoconus, his right eye they say “has reached the max” it can be but do you think the sclera lenses will help him at all even a little bit until we can save for surgery
@@NancyLopez-wy8rt I think it's best to consult with a doctor, the job of scleral lenses is to give a natural shape to the cornea, he has to get physical tests to determine if a scleral lens will be effective
I have keratoconus for the 26 years and been struggling with RGP lenses for a long period of time and that caused severe corneal scarring and extreme discomfort.I didnt want to go for the transplant so my doctor advised sceral lenses which worked pretty well in the first year but my vision is keep on deteriorating since.May be my keratoconus is progressing very fast.Its very hard to live with this condition.I hope and pray for everyone's health.
I feel and understand your pain I'm supposed to start driving trucks bit won't be able to pass the dot physical until my vision gets to at least 20/40 with the lense I'm now at 20/50 but my Dr ordered me another a little stronger I hope it works. It's not good news hearing when i.got diagnosed with this. Wish you the best.prayers.fpr your recovery also
I have lived with Kertatoconus nearly 40 years. I had a hydrops in one eye at age 18. Got a transplant in that eye a few years later and my vision improved to 20/15 with contacts. My other eye is about 20/40 with RGP lenses, but still much uncorrectable astigmatism in that eye. My quality of life has been good since because I had such good vision out of the eye with the transplant (and the graft never rejected!). With all that said have had more issues with astigmatism and my contacts popping out the past few years and recently was fitted for. custom Scleral lenses at the University of Iowa Eye clinic that will work very similar to the Laser fit contacts and will be getting them next week! The prospect of 20/20 vision in both eyes without astigmatism is so exciting I can barely contain myself! I hope to have an experience similar to this young man as I had resigned myself to never seeing that well again...
I don't have keratoconous but something similar. It's called Greyson Wilbrandt. It affects botb eyes. I went for my fitting yesterday and this was my reaction. This was my reaction when I was told about Scleral lenses and this was me yesterday. I was so used to seeing hazy and a little distorted that I had not realized how bad my eyes truly were. To be able to see clear and notice every tiny detail is amazing. I agree with his dad, this is a miracle.
I have the same thing (Keratgoconus). They gave me gasperm lenses at first, which suck and I couldn't stick with due to discomfort. I'm hopeful Scleral lenses work for me.
Sadly it not worked for me :( Scleral Lenses are the future and the comfort is superb but after 5th time of changing the Lenses especially for my right eye i gave up on them. On my right eye I see not clear with the lenses, much ghostings and double or triple visions and cannot see very well at the distance. The Optometrist tried everything, he has much experience with this kind of Lenses, he told me everything and showed me everything to need to know, he fitted the lenses the best he could but yeah, that's it for me - on my right eye I've done Cross Linking and Laser eye surgery. I'm totally frustrated about it, I was hoping so much that finally I've got a solution for it :( I hope it will benefit you more.
@@ravenmcclaw1725 Thanks and sorry to hear that. I have been wearing Scleral lenses for the last few weeks. I am pretty happy with them thus far. My right eye, which has a sever astigmatism, is actually correcting slightly better than my left eye, which has only a slight astigmatism. I don't know how that is possible, but I guess i'll take it.
I also burst out crying when my scleral lenses were fitted. It is so amazing to see clear. I only have 70% vision with scleral lenses but it does help. Unfortunately vision is too bad for night driving
@@NancyLopez-wy8rt o yes. The vision is fantastic. I dint have 100% vision. Max 70% vision with lenses. I just find the lenses very uncomfortable especially to the end of the day. Keep me posted
To those who suffer from keratoconus and frustrated from regular or hybrid lenses... YOU SHOULD TRY SCLERAL LENSES.... Waaw!! It is so comfortable. Do not loss hope in fitting visit to your optometrist... In fitting visit it took time for me to apply it despite I have experience from hybrid lenses... My palpebral opening is small and my eyelids are a bit buffy.. However after training on how to apply the scleral lenses, it became easy Scleral lenses are very very comfortable.. You barely can feel it.. Actually it is important not to forget it for looong time or during sleep... Despite hybrid lenses which was rub my inner eyelid each time I blink.
@@Andreyabish no not really, Ive had my 3rd fitting today for scleral lenses, and so far, they really dont work at all. Not even close to 20/20 vision in my bad eye and super annoying to use. I should re-watch this video and consider going to this texas place, but i dont wanna pay out of pocket for it. what stage are you with your keratoconus?
I’m happy this person has benefitted from this - but I’m confused how he lived with Keratoconus for 3 years and no doctor recommended Corneal Cross Linking to stop further degeneration of his cornea? My basic optometrist told me about this procedure which is fairly common in the USA...
@@alakranzitha now that's bullshit, sorry to say that. Every Keratoconus patient has a thin cornea because of Keratoconus. Like me in example, I've done Cross linking 2 years ago and also my Cornea was thin, this is also the main reason for Cross linking, not only for the stability of the cornea but also for filling up the thin cornea up to a normal size. Benefit of it, you can wear contacts much more comfortable, it doesn't hurt you as bad as with thin cornea. Last year I made the special Smart surf trans prk eye laser surgery, this will reshape the cornea to its normal shape. Benefit of it, you can wear glasses, the ghosting, halos, double visions are almost gone or you can wear soft lenses or hard lenses and your vision will improve dramatically. First advice, if you have Keratoconus, immediately go to a specialist and make an appointment to do cross-linking, the sooner the better, if your Doctor says that you Cornea is to thin for the operation, then he is not the correct one to do this surgery in the first place, look for somebody else.
Raven McClaw Thank you I will try to do cross linking. I wear sclerals lenses and feel good about them. Yes I wish I could find a better doctor and have a better vision as well.
I’ve had keratoconus for over 8 years, and wasn’t properly diagnosed until 3 years ago. My doctor didn’t tell me about collagen cross linking until last year and RECOMMENDED it yesterday because I had progressed from last year (I’m only 24 and have it in 95% of my right eye). It’s very possible.
I'm 34 had it since 17 I'm had and legally blind in both eyes just when I was considering transplant God sent me to a cornea specialist and he told me told me to try scleral lenes. Ive had my scleral lenses for a year and I know exactly how that boy feels My vision is almost perfect my insurance did not cover them they cost $1200 but you can't put a price on vision hope this helps.God bless
Hello. I'm a 35 year's old Keratoconus patient. I've have Keratoconus in both eyes, one worse than the other. Since I needed to see better to do my tasks, I went to fit GP contact lenses and Scleral lenses both, but the doctors couldn't fit the right lenses for me. In fact I see the results with GP lenses and Sclerals were worse then my glasses (the result was more blurry and with multiple vision with some shades around objects). Why this happens? May I have any chance with GPs or Sclerals at all?
Just got the cross linking done about a month ago now I’m waiting for my appointment to get the scleral len I only have one eye with keratoconus which my doctor said it was wierd because it’s usually on both eyes I guess I got lucky
I have advanced keratoconus and my night is now really worse..too sensitive to light forming of halos around the light... Iam 23 year old and i have done c3 R in both eyes ... Is scleral lenses or icl surgery is a better option for me
I have my scleral lenses for a few days now but i still see a shadow above. If i force my eyes a little bit it disappears. I study med school but I dont know if i can finish it because of my vision. Can the shadow above disappear? Is it just that the lens need to be remake? I hope you see this and help me docter its so depressing. I just want to be able to read without seeing the shadow above.
