What is Keratoconus?
Keratoconus is a progressive eye condition in which the cornea becomes thin and cone-shaped.
This irregular shape causes:

Why Regular Glasses Often Don’t Work
Standard glasses and soft contact lenses cannot fully correct the distorted shape of the cornea in keratoconus. Specialty contact lenses create a new smooth optical surface, allowing patients to achieve much clearer vision.
