4 Benefits of Scleral Contact Lenses
-
Cost-effective
Because they're custom fit, the cost of scleral lenses is usually higher than standard contact lenses. However, because sclerals last up to 2 years, they're more cost-effective in the long term.
-
Eye protection
Sclerals are larger than other types of contacts, which allows for better protection from debris, dust and allergens that may irritate or injure your eye.
-
Extra-stable vision
Their extra-large diameter keeps the scleral lenses centered and steady on your eye. If you play sports or have an active lifestyle, their size, shape and customized fit will prevent them from popping out of your eye.
-
Superior hydration
Scleral lenses form a pocket that fills with artificial tears as they vault over your cornea. This lubricating cushion provides an extremely comfortable wearing experience for all-day hydration.
With scleral lenses, you'll experience vision comfort and excellent optics like never before!
Scleral Lenses FAQs
Scleral lenses can provide immense relief to dry eye patients.
These custom-designed lenses vault over the cornea and rest on the scleral while avoiding the irritated cornea. The liquid reservoir between the lens and the cornea provides a continuous moist environment that protects the cornea and provides relief for those with dry, itchy and burning eyes.
Scleral lenses are custom-fit to your exact corneal measurements. This, along with the lenses' extra-large size, makes the lenses both extra-comfortable and extra-stable on the eye.
This will largely depend on the type of insurance you have. Not all insurances are the same. Some plans will cover the exam and the lens fitting, but will not cover the lenses themselves. Others will agree to pay part or all of the cost, but usually, after other treatment options have been exhausted.

My wife had an incredibly frustrating experience here trying to get a simple pair of contact lenses.... Show More After multiple failed attempts to get her prescription right — despite her clearly explaining that the lenses were not working — the staff seemed more interested in insisting that their numbers were correct rather than actually listening to the patient.
Instead of acknowledging the issue or offering real solutions, they resorted to gaslighting her by claiming that her vision was perfectly fine at 20/20 — even though she could clearly tell her vision was off and uncomfortable. It felt dismissive, unprofessional, and honestly insulting to be told that what she was experiencing wasn’t real.
We expected care and accuracy — not attitude and deflection. We will definitely be taking our business elsewhere and recommend others think twice before trusting this place with their vision needs.
Edit: After posting this review, Dr. Sumner personally reached out to us and took the time to make things right. We genuinely appreciate that they cared enough to follow up and resolve the situation. It’s clear that they value their patients and are willing to correct mistakes when they happen. That effort meant a lot to us.

I definitely recommend Sumner Vision.
