BACKGROUND: To investigate which factors are correlated with the visual improvement achieved with a specific model of scleral contact lens (SCL) in keratoconus (KC) eyes and to define a model to predict such improvement according to the pre-fitting data. In addition, the changes occurred with the fitting of a specific model of SCL during a period of 3 months in corneas with KC have been investigated.
METHODS: Longitudinal retrospective study including 30 eyes of 18 patients (age, 14-65 years) with KC fitted with the SCL ICD16.50 (Paragon Vision Sciences). Visual, refractive, corneal tomographic and ocular aberrometric changes were evaluated during a 3-month follow-up. Likewise, the characterization of the post-lens meniscus was performed by optical coherence tomography (OCT) with the measurement of central, nasal and temporal vaults.
RESULTS: The visual acuity increased significantly from a mean pre-fitting value with spectacles of 0.23 ± 0.07 logarithm of minimal angle of resolution (logMAR) to a mean value of 0.10 ± 0.04 logMAR after 1 month of SCL wear (P < 0.001). An improvement of 1 or more lines of visual acuity with the SCL occurred in 62.1% of the eyes. A significant decrease in central, nasal, and temporal vault was observed after 1 month of SCL wear (P ≤ 0.046). Likewise, there was a significant difference between nasal and temporal vaults during the first month of SCL use (P = 0.008). Furthermore, a significant reduction of ocular high order (P = 0.028) and primary coma root mean square (P = 0.018) was found with the SCL. A predicting linear equation of the change in visual acuity achievable with the SCL was obtained (P < 0.001, R2 = 0.878) considering the pre-fitting spectacle corrected distance visual acuity, and the power and sagittal lens of SCL.
CONCLUSIONS: The scleral contact lens evaluated provides an efficacious visual rehabilitation in KC due to the improvement of visual acuity and the correction of low and high-order ocular aberrations. This visual acuity improvement can be predicted from some pre-fitting variables.
