Scleral Lenses
H.G.
I am a competitive clay target shooter, and a lifelong contact lens wearer. I had been getting increasingly frustrated and discouraged over the years as I couldn’t achieve clear vision with soft contact lenses. Windy days, any dust or pollen, and dry eyes resulted in blurry, uncomfortable lenses, visual distortion, and my scores and day to day life suffered as a result. The astigmatism in my dominant eye could not ever be corrected to my satisfaction. I had tried rigid gas permeable lenses in the past, and liked the clarity and correction they offered, but hated the discomfort – I wanted to rip them out of my eyes after a couple of hours. The last straw came when my previous eye doctor said, “This is as good as it’s going to get!” That was unacceptable to me and I headed straight home and started researching my options – there had to be a solution.
I started finding references to Scleral lenses from athletes who compete in sports where vision is crucial and read rave reviews about the crystal clear vision and comfort they offered. I discovered that scleral lens fitting is a very specialized practice, and I figured I’d have to travel some distance to find a professional who could take the time and had the expertise to work with me. I kept finding informative articles and references from a Dr. Peter Wilcox – and then discovered his practice is almost in my backyard!
Dr. Wilcox and his staff have been incredible in assessing my eye care needs and individually tailoring vision care services for me. Dr. Wilcox is passionate and meticulous about his craft, and I have been so impressed with his continual quest for perfection….all to ensure I have the best possible vision for my sport and for my life. Scleral lenses and the relationship I have built with Dr. Wilcox have been life-changing. I adore my comfortable scleral lenses – my shooting scores are up and I’m enjoying seeing things at a level of detail I could only imagine before. The next time your eye doctor says “This is as good as it’s going to get”, call Dr. Wilcox and find out what “good” can really can be!
