Scleral Lense and wind.

[summer]

Does Scleral Lenses protect against the wind ? Not sure what these are meant to do?
Can someone tell me do they protect and cover the full eye? (whites and all)?

Does Scleral Lenses protect against the wind ?

They protect the cornea from the wind. But there's still the top surface of the lens and the undersides of the lids to worry about. A lot of us that wear the lenses still need protective eyewear outdoors, in wind, and in those awful stores with air blowing around & fluorescent lighting.

They completely cover the cornea and they cover part of the scleral (white of the eye). They're designed to provide a liquid layer over the entire cornea for a variety of reasons, whether for vision correction or for treating ocular surface diseases.
