Keratoconus is a progressive eye disease that changes the shape of the cornea. The cornea is the eye s protective layer that covers the optical apparatus of the eye. It allows vision by permitting the light to enter the eye. The cornea is round in shape. But sometimes, it gets thin and bulges out to form a cone shape. This change in shape deflects the light entering the eye. It leads to blurred or distorted vision or both. It might also cause nearsightedness, astigmatism, light sensitivity, and ...more

In medical terms, it is known as keratoplasty for a corneal graft. The cornea needs to be clear, smooth, and healthy for a good vision. An unhealthy cornea leads to blurry vision.
Before transplanting cornea, doctors also try to treat the problem with other methods. However, if the condition is not gett...more

A cone-shaped cornea causes blurred vision and may cause sensitivity to light and glare. Keratoconus usually affects both eyes and generally begins to first affect people ages 10 to 25. The condition may progress slowly for 10 years or longer.
In the early stages of keratoconus, you can correct vision problems with glasses or soft contact lenses. Later, you may have to be fitted with rigid, gas permeable contact lenses or other types of lenses. If your condition progresses to an advanced sta...more

Ulcers and perforations of cornea are some very serious clinical conditions, which threaten vision rapidly and progressively, and disintegrate the eye globe. They need to be taken care of immediately to prevent irreparable damage to the eyes. In spite of the advanced medical research and practice, severe injuries, infections, and diseases of cornea can lead to serious corneal perforations, which require surgery necessarily as the ultimate solution.
