Do you have blurry, distorted or double vision? It might not just be a change in your glasses number — it could be Keratoconus.
In this video, we explain this condition in the simplest way possible.

Keratoconus is a condition where the cornea becomes thin and starts bulging outward, turning into a cone shape. Instead of light focusing correctly, it bends unevenly — causing blurred and distorted vision.

Common symptoms include:

Vision that stays unclear even with glasses
Frequent changes in prescription
Sensitivity to bright light
Difficulty driving at night due to glare
Many people mistake this for regular eyesight issues, but early detection is very important.

Why does Keratoconus happen?
The exact reason is not fully known, but it may be linked to genetics, eye rubbing, allergies, or hormonal changes. It usually starts in teenage years or early 20s.

How is it diagnosed?
An eye specialist performs Corneal Topography, which creates a 3D map of your cornea.

Treatment options include:
✔ Glasses or special contact lenses (early stage)
✔ Corneal Cross-Linking (C3R), TRK, TCAT to stop progression
✔ INTACS for reshaping
✔ Corneal Transplant for advanced cases

Avoid eye rubbing, wear UV-protective sunglasses & get regular checkups.
