I am now about 7 or 8 months into the lenses. I use Boston simplus, rubs the lenses well upon removal and have started using an enzyme cleaner periodically, as I can no longer see well from right eye, and I am assuming it is some sort of protein buildup on the lens. Or maybe it's my glaucoma, or maybe the beginnings of a cataract, as the fuzz in the middle seems to always be there (unless it's all in my head now!).
I'm 60 years old and am using drops to lower eye pressure. I wear these lenses about 16 hours a day. I do have a follow-up coming with my eye care person but I guess am mostly wondering if there is something else I might try with the lens(es) if it is a buildup prior to that appointment.
My concern would be a central cornea issue from the Scleral Lenses. You should get back in as soon as possible
