I'm waiting for a new prescription for scleral lenses - in the meantime I'm "piggybacking" with soft (dailies) and RGP lenses, with reasonable success (and have been for about 2 years) - but it's far from ideal. I'm having real problems with the RGP lenses "fogging" - I'm down to sitting at my desk all day with a bottle of saline, and having to remove and rinse the lenses maybe every 30 minutes or otherwise the text on my monitor fades away in a mist! Boston cleaner gives me a few more minutes wear between rinses, but I'm having to do it so frequently it's doing my head in. The RGP lenses I have are quite old - and hopefully my new sclerals will solve the problem. But in the meantime - anyone out there had this problem? - and anyone come up with a solution (no pun intended!)? Off to rinse my lenses ......

Welcome to the forum and all the best with your new Scleral lenses. My all time favourite lens was my scleral!

Hi Bob.

I experience fogging too, although it certainly worsens when I am using the computer. I would suggest regular breaks as us contact lens users, generally I believe, tend to blink less when using the computer and this I think will increase the fogging.

This may sound bizarre but actually remind yourself to blink but most importantly have regular breaks as I find this makes a big difference as does drining plenty of water to make sure I am well hydrated.

I must add that I wear sclerlals and still get this problem but every eye is different so that doesn't mean you will too!

Let me know as I will be interested on the results you get from sclerlal lenses and how you find them.

Thanks

Jay
