Keratoconus

Keratoconus is an eye condition where the cornea becomes thin and begins to bulge into a cone-like shape. This change in shape deflects light as it enters the eye, causing distorted vision.

Symptoms:

Blurry vision

Light sensitivity

Night vision issues

Halo vision

Management

Soft Lenses: Early-stage correction.

Collagen Cross-Linking (CXL): Corneal strengthening.

Intacs: Corneal shape modification. Corneal reshaping.

RGP Lenses: Advanced-stage vision correction.

Hybrid/Scleral Lenses: Enhanced comfort and fit.
