Keratoconus is a progressive eye condition that affects the shape and clarity of your vision. It occurs when the normally round cornea becomes thin and begins to bulge outward into a cone-like shape. This irregular shape prevents light from focusing properly on the retina, leading to distorted and blurry vision. Understanding the main cause of keratoconus and the importance of early detection is essential in protecting your eyesight and quality of life.

Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of irreversible vision loss, often referred to as the "silent thief of sight" because it can develop slowly and without noticeable symptoms in the early stages. Understanding what glaucoma is and the factors that influence how quickly it progresses can help you take proactive steps to protect your vision.

One of the most effective options available is orthokeratology (Ortho-K)—a non-surgical, overnight treatment that helps control myopia progression.

Keratoconus is a progressive eye condition in which the cornea, the clear front part of the eye, gradually thins and bulges into a cone-like shape. This irregular shape causes light entering the eye to be distorted, resulting in blurred and distorted vision. Keratoconus typically begins in the teenage years or early 20s and can worsen over time, making it increasingly difficult to see clearly.
