Objective:

To review a case of a keratoconus patient experiencing corneal erosion over intrastromal corneal ring segments (ICRS) during scleral lens wear.

Key Findings:
  • Remove unsupported claims about scleral lenses improving visual acuity.
  • Clarify that proper vaulting is essential to prevent irritation without implying outcomes.
Interpretation:

Remove unsupported conclusions about erosions occurring during lens wear.

Limitations:
  • The case is based on a single patient experience.
Conclusion:

Revise to state that monitoring for complications is necessary without implying outcomes.
