corneal grafts

Hi I am newly registered to this site, and I am currently in the being fitted for a schelol contact lens and was wondering if anyone have been using this type of lens.

Hello Morris25 and welcome,
You've probably seen that suddenly everyone's asking about scleral lenses! So yes, quite a few people here use them. And quite a few of those say they're more comfortable than any other lens they've tried. But we've also had some people who can't get on with them. I hope you turn out to be in the first group and that they work well for you.

thanks for the reply I am at the early stage of fitting been to the royal glam hospital to the contact lens clinic but the one they tried last time needed to be altered and appointments are 6 to 8 weeks apart so it gets frustrating.

Yes, that is frustrating, but if the lenses work for you, hopefully it will be worth the wait. Good luck!
