Prose Treatment Devices

[tjjohnson]

I was wondering if there is anyone wearing the Prose Treatment Contact Lenses built from the Foundation For Sight in Boston.  I wear Jupiter sclerel contact lenses now and  have so much trouble with them.  The glare is horrible, the insides get residu built up which means I have to remove them, clean then reinsert.  They are very difficult to get in my eyes as they are very big.  They get uncomfortable within about six hours of wearing.  I have heard great things about the Prose lenses but I would love to hear the down side to them.  I am considering having them built but it is very expensive and would require long distance traveling as well.  Thank you for any information you can share with me.

Hi t,

I looked it up.   Maybe there is a discussion group or blog on line.   Try googling.

I hadn't heard of the Prose.

But it looks interesting.

Good luck.

Keep us posted.
