Judgements from optometrists and ophthalmologists about shell suitability for different clinical presentations were wide ranging and inconsistent. Judgements from ocular prosthetists highlighted globe volume, corneal sensitivity and corneal integrity as key factors determining shell wear success. Keratitis and discomfort with shell wear were of high concern to both optometrists and ophthalmologists. Optometrists and ocular prosthetists most frequently reported that shells should be disinfected daily with no overnight wear, while ophthalmologists provided heterogeneous recommendations.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>There are significant inconsistencies among and between ophthalmologists and optometrists in the provision, care and maintenance of scleral shells. Ocular prosthetists in New Zealand do not have the necessary scope of practice to care for patients' eye health once they have fabricated and fitted a scleral shell. The consequence of these combined factors is that people with blind disfigured eyes in New Zealand are sub-optimally managed. This survey provides a foundation for developing interdisciplinary consensus guidelines on scleral shell provision and maintenance in New Zealand.</p>","PeriodicalId":49087,"journal":{"name":"Contact Lens & Anterior Eye","volume":" ","pages":"102510"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2025-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145082000","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
