Abstract
The disclosure generally describes methods, systems and products relating to the development and manufacture of scleral contact lenses. A number of dimensions for the scleral lens is generated based on control points and attendant curvature parameters. Any change to one or more of the curve parameters imparts an improved anterior and posterior surface of the scleral lens and associated thickness, while undesired modifications to control points and other curve parameters remain static inasmuch as the sagittal depth component is an input parameter of the present disclosure.
