[Ohio-talk] Scleral shell question

[Barb Fohl]

Hi Beth,

I wear arti artificial eye shells, but I'm embarrassed to say that I don't 
know if they're called "scleral" eye shells.  My ocularist is Brian Miller 
at Miller Artificial Eye Lab, phone 1800-242-3452.  If you went to someone 
else, you might want to contact Miller to see if they have any other ideas 
or answers to your questions.

If you'd like to talk to me about this, I can be reached at 
barbfohl at pobox.com, or by phone at 440-964-7824.

Cordially,

Barb Fohl

Subject: [Ohio-talk] Scleral shell question


Hi everyone, do any of you have/know someone who has a scleral shell. I'm 
trying to find someone who uses the shell with very sensitive eyes. 
Yesterday I went to get my shell, and the ocularist couldn't get it in my 
eye, because of the sensitivity. The ocularist suggested a surgery to freeze 
the nervesin the front of my eye. I would like to avoid this if possible. I 
can't find any info on why the shell doesn't work for some people.

I'm not sure if questions like this follow the rules of this dicussion 
board, so I hope this is okay.

Beth
