Introduction

A 31 male had previously worn scleral lenses. With his last pair of lenses there were complaints of red eyes after 4 hours of wear and blurred vision when driving at night. First pair was fitted using a ‘regular’ placido type topographer, this time it was decided to do a refit based on Profilometry data using the Eaglet-Eye, Eye Surface profiler (ESP). Accurate sagittal height data of the ocular surface was obtained which was used to order the best fitting lenses.
