Envisions Eyecare not only stays up to date with current medical advancements, our doctors are leading the field. With Dr. Iacobbo’s technique for fitting patients with Keratoconus with scleral lenses, his patients are comfortable on the first day and are able to wear their lenses almost all waking hours.

In fact, during 2010 Dr. Iacobbo published a paper for fitting scleral lenses for patients who had secondary disease resulting from distortion of their corneas due to chemotherapy and radiation.
