RGP sits on the cornea (smaller); Hybrid combines a rigid centre with a soft skirt; Scleral lenses of varying size rests on the sclera and vaults the cornea.

Hybrids can be a helpful alternative for selected eyes when a scleral lens isn’t preferred or suitable. We’ll recommend them only when clinically appropriate.

Many patients find the soft skirt helps comfort, but comfort depends on fit, dryness, and handling.

Lens lifespan varies with care, deposits, and wear patterns. We’ll guide you on replacement planning.
