Impression Based Scleral Lenses
Another approach is the technique of ocular impressions. Using a specialized gel, a impression of the eye is obtained. This impression is the most accurate depiction of your eye possible and is then 3D scanned, creating a digital model of the eye. Using this model and multiple highly specialized computer aided design programs a completely bespoke scleral lens, such as a EyePrintPro device, can be created by Dr. Gelles.
Dr. Gelles has been a pioneer in this technique. He was the first to perform it in the North East United States and is currently the only doctor trained to do so in the state of New Jersey. Less than 0.1% of practitioners in the world are trained on this technique.
