Advanced Keratoconus refers to a progressive degenerative condition affecting the cornea, leading to significant thinning and distortion.
Keratoconus is a progressive disorder where the cornea gradually thins and becomes conical in shape, leading to distorted vision. In cases of a pronounced cone, the protrusion of the cornea is more severe, causing higher degrees of astigmatism and visual impairment. Patients with a pronounced cone often experience difficulty with daily activities such as reading, driving, and recognizing faces. Treatment options for a pronounced cone may include specialized contact lenses, such as scleral lenses, corneal cross-linking to strengthen the cornea, or in severe cases, corneal transplantation. Early detection and regular eye examinations are vital for managing and addressing the challenges associated with a pronounced cone.

Cornea ectasias encompass a group of conditions characterized by the thinning and protrusion of the cornea, resulting in visual distortion and astigmatism.
These conditions, including Keratoconus and Pellucid Marginal Degeneration, involve the gradual weakening and bulging of the cornea, leading to irregular corneal shape. Cornea ectasias often cause visual symptoms such as blurred vision, ghosting, and sensitivity to light. Treatment options for cornea ectasias include specialized contact lenses, such as scleral lenses, which provide a smooth and regular corneal surface for improved visual acuity. In more severe cases, corneal cross-linking, a procedure aimed at strengthening the cornea, or corneal transplantation may be considered to restore vision and stability to the affected eye.
ClerVision lenses for this condition:
Dry eye syndrome, often associated with Sjogren’s syndrome, is a chronic condition characterized by insufficient lubrication and moisture on the surface of the eyes.
It occurs when the tears fail to adequately nourish and protect the eyes, leading to discomfort, redness, and a gritty or sandy sensation. Sjogren’s syndrome, an autoimmune disorder, can further exacerbate dry eye symptoms due to the immune system mistakenly attacking the glands that produce tears and saliva. Common treatments for dry eye/Sjogren syndrome include artificial tears, which provide temporary relief by lubricating the eyes, as well as prescription medications to reduce inflammation and promote tear production. Additionally, lifestyle modifications, such as using a humidifier, avoiding irritants, and taking regular breaks from screen time, can help manage the symptoms and improve overall eye comfort.
ClerVision lenses for this condition:
A highly irregular cornea refers to a condition in which the shape of the cornea deviates significantly from its normal curvature.
This irregularity can cause severe visual distortion, leading to difficulties in focusing and perceiving clear images. Common causes of a highly irregular cornea include corneal disorders such as Keratoconus, corneal scarring, and corneal trauma. People with a highly irregular cornea often experience blurred vision, astigmatism, and problems with wearing conventional eyeglasses or contact lenses. Specialized contact lenses, such as scleral lenses or custom-designed lenses, are often recommended to provide a smoother and more regular corneal surface, improving visual acuity and comfort. In some cases, surgical interventions like corneal transplantation may be necessary to restore the shape and function of the cornea.
ClerVision lenses for this condition:
An irregular cornea surface refers to a condition in which the outer layer of the cornea, the clear front part of the eye, is not smooth and uniform.
This irregularity can cause visual distortions, including blurred or double vision, halos around lights, and difficulty with night vision. Irregular cornea surface can occur due to various factors, such as corneal injuries, corneal diseases like keratoconus, corneal scarring, or post-surgical complications. Treatment options for irregular cornea surface may include specialty contact lenses, such as scleral lenses or hybrid lenses, which provide a more regular corneal surface for improved vision. In some cases, surgical interventions, such as corneal reshaping procedures or corneal transplants, may be considered to restore corneal shape and improve visual acuity. Proper diagnosis and management by an eye care professional are essential for addressing irregular cornea surface effectively.
ClerVision lenses for this condition:
Pinguecula is a common benign growth that appears as a yellowish or white elevated area on the conjunctiva, the thin clear tissue covering the white part of the eye.
It typically forms on the side of the eye near the nose, but can occur on the outer edges as well. Pinguecula is often associated with long-term exposure to sunlight, dust, wind, and other environmental factors. Although pinguecula itself is harmless, it can cause dryness, irritation, and a feeling of a foreign body sensation in the eye. Treatment options for pinguecula may include artificial tears, lubricating eye drops, and wearing protective eyewear to minimize exposure to irritants. In rare cases, if the pinguecula becomes inflamed or causes significant discomfort, surgical removal may be considered.
ClerVision lenses for this condition:
Pellucid Marginal Degeneration (PMD) is a rare eye condition characterized by the thinning and steepening of the cornea, the clear front surface of the eye.
It typically affects the lower portion of the cornea, causing it to assume a cone-like shape. PMD often leads to irregular astigmatism, which results in distorted and blurred vision. Symptoms may include glare, halos around lights, and difficulties with contact lens fitting. Treatment options for PMD aim to improve vision and may include glasses or contact lenses designed specifically for irregular corneas. In advanced cases where visual impairment is significant, corneal transplantation may be considered to restore visual acuity and improve quality of life. Regular monitoring by an eye care professional is essential to manage PMD effectively.
ClerVision lenses for this condition:
Post LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis), PRK (Photorefractive Keratectomy), and RK (Radial Keratotomy) refer to different types of refractive surgeries performed to correct vision.
Following these procedures, the cornea undergoes changes that require proper healing and recovery. Patients may experience temporary side effects such as dryness, glare, halos, or fluctuations in vision during the initial healing period. It is crucial to adhere to the post-operative instructions provided by the surgeon, which often include using prescribed eye drops, avoiding rubbing the eyes, and protecting the eyes from UV exposure. Regular follow-up appointments with the eye care professional are essential to monitor the healing process and ensure optimal visual outcomes.
ClerVision lenses for this condition:
Prior to CXL (Corneal Cross-Linking), a non-invasive procedure used to treat progressive keratoconus, the cornea may exhibit thinning and bulging, resulting in vision distortions.
CXL aims to strengthen the cornea by increasing its collagen cross-linking, thereby halting the progression of keratoconus and stabilizing the cornea’s shape. Prior to the procedure, thorough evaluations, including corneal mapping and measurements, are conducted to determine the appropriate treatment plan. Following CXL, patients may experience temporary discomfort, light sensitivity, and blurred vision. Close post-operative monitoring is essential to ensure proper healing and to manage any potential complications.
ClerVision lenses for this condition:
The terms “prolate” and “oblate” are used to describe different shapes of the cornea.
A prolate cornea refers to a cornea that has a relatively normal curvature, resembling a more spherical shape. In contrast, an oblate cornea refers to a cornea that is flatter in the central region, causing it to deviate from the natural curvature. These variations in corneal shape can affect vision and refractive errors. Prolate corneas are typically associated with normal or nearsighted vision, while oblate corneas are often linked to farsightedness. Understanding the corneal shape is crucial in determining the appropriate corrective measures, such as eyeglasses, contact lenses, or refractive surgeries, to optimize visual acuity. Regular eye examinations are important to assess and address any corneal irregularities.
ClerVision lenses for this condition:
A pronounced cone refers to a significant and noticeable bulging of the cornea, resulting in a condition known as advanced keratoconus.
Keratoconus is a progressive disorder where the cornea gradually thins and becomes conical in shape, leading to distorted vision. In cases of a pronounced cone, the protrusion of the cornea is more severe, causing higher degrees of astigmatism and visual impairment. Patients with a pronounced cone often experience difficulty with daily activities such as reading, driving, and recognizing faces. Treatment options for a pronounced cone may include specialized contact lenses, such as scleral lenses, corneal cross-linking to strengthen the cornea, or in severe cases, corneal transplantation. Early detection and regular eye examinations are vital for managing and addressing the challenges associated with a pronounced cone.
