Some eyes require more advanced contact lens solutions to achieve clear, comfortable vision. Specialty contact lenses are designed for patients who may struggle with standard lenses or glasses due to eye shape, prescription complexity, or specific vision needs. Our eye doctors take a personalized approach, carefully evaluating eye health and lifestyle to recommend specialty lenses that improve clarity, comfort, and confidence.

Who Can Benefit From Specialty Contact Lenses
Specialty contact lenses may be recommended for patients who have not found success with traditional contact lenses. These lenses are designed to address more complex vision challenges and provide improved comfort and visual quality.
Patients who may benefit include:

Individuals with irregular corneas or conditions such as keratoconus
-
Patients who experience discomfort with standard soft contact lenses
-
Children or teens enrolled in myopia management programs
-
Adults with complex or high prescriptions

Patients seeking clearer, more stable vision than glasses can provide
Our eye doctors help determine whether specialty contact lenses are appropriate based on eye health, visual needs, and daily activities.
Options at The Vision Hub
Specialty contact lenses are customized to each patient’s eyes and visual needs. These lenses often require advanced measurements, precise fittings, and follow-up care to ensure optimal results.
Contact Lenses for Keratoconus
Keratoconus causes the cornea to thin and change shape over time, leading to distorted or blurred vision. Scleral contact lenses rest on the white part of the eye and create a smooth optical surface over the cornea. They are commonly recommended for patients with keratoconus or irregular corneas.
MiSight® Contact Lenses
MiSight® lenses are daily disposable contact lenses designed for children with myopia. These lenses help slow progression while providing clear vision for school, sports, and everyday activities.
Rigid Gas-Permeable (RGP) Lenses
RGP lenses maintain their shape on the eye, which helps correct vision distortion caused by an irregular cornea. These lenses may be recommended for patients with keratoconus.
Orthokeratology (Ortho-K)
Ortho-k lenses are worn overnight and gently reshape the cornea during sleep. Lenses are removed in the morning, allowing for clear vision throughout the day without glasses or contacts. Ortho-k is often used for myopia management and active lifestyles.
