A member asked:
Could my worsening vision be a result of cornea?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Perhaps you have already been told you have a corneal issue. Some changes in the cornea, especially a condition usually in young adults termed <keratoconus> can profoundly affect the vision. See an ophthalmologist or a corneal specialist for a definitive diagnosis.
