Flat corneas often require specialized contact lenses to ensure proper fit and vision correction. Scleral lenses and rigid gas permeable (RGP) lenses are commonly used for flat corneas, as they provide a larger diameter and can vault over the cornea, allowing for a more stable fit. Additionally, toric lenses may be considered if astigmatism is present. It is essential to have a professional fitting to determine the best type and parameters for individual needs.
