Can Sclerals Just Not Work For Someone?
I've always worn soft contacts and been relatively OK with my KC which is mainly bad in my left eye. There were some slight changes in my right eye and now the soft contact causing some irritation on the outside corner of my eye and so my doctor ordered my scleral lenses (and my insurance covered them!). We tried like a dozen other soft lenses and none felt right either.
We've gone through 3 fitting appointments with the fit and vision getting better in each one. At my last appointment he tested both eyes and the fit was as good as it could get (and felt OK to me, a bit weird, but I think that's more of just how they feel) and the vision in each eye individually was good... But together it's not. When I have both eyes open my vision feels off, not like double vision, but blurriness coming and going, but never getting close to as good as a single eye.
I've tried it a few times for 15-30 minutes to see if my brain adjusts to it, but they just won't work.
My condition isn't that bad, I can see 20/25 or better with glasses on through both eyes, I'm like -5.5 in my right eye and then -2.75/-2.25 in my left.
Any thoughts? My doctor said it could be that they just aren't for me. He's fit sclerals for a while and seems to be the choice in my area, so I don't think it's experience or anything like that.
