Help is available: Keratoconus is a progressive condition which can cause a deterioration in vision, but the progression can be stopped with a procedure called corneal crosslinking. We perform this in-office procedure routinely as part of the CXLUSA clinical trial. In addition, intacs, RGP contact lenses, or corneal transplantation can all help to reshape the cornea and restore vision.
Created for people with ongoing healthcare needs but benefits everyone.
