| Video Discription | The cornea, made of protective layers in the front part of the eye, can become damaged in many ways. But don't let the name scare you as a corneal scar can be easily treated with contact lenses. Contact lenses can help bend light around the scar to improve the patient’s vision. For more information, visit https://uvahealth.com/services/eye-care/corneal-abrasion Another condition that's very commonly treated with contact lenses is corneal scars, lacerations, or corneal trauma to the eye. With this condition we have irregular astigmatism due to the formation of whatever wound healing has occurred in the eye. When you have a scar, it's an opacity and you can't see through an opacity. You have to have a clear line of sight so we can use contact lenses literally to bend light around the scar and allow the patient to see better. |
