Unfortunately many doctors don't have current information on sclerals.

They have been used to restore vision and/or to deal with dry eye for many lasik patients over the years... including myself.

I have never heard of them causing allergies, though that doesn't mean it doesn't happen. I would have though ocular allergies would probably fare well with the lenses because the cornea is completely shielded from allergans, but that's not to say someone might not actually have a problem with the lens itself. I would suggest calling BFS (bostonsight.org) for facts on disadvantages or risks of the PROSE lenses.
