A Study to Evaluate Fogging in Scleral Contact Lens

Overview

About this study

The purpose of this study is to quantify potential decreases in visual acuity experienced by patients who experience mid-day fogging during scleral lens wear, compare severity of subjectively reported fogging with clinical findings, and to explore the relationship between scleral lens fitting parameters and mid-day fogging.
