A member asked:
Is it okay to get contacts if eyes have coning issues?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes : Keratoconus rquires contact to correct the vision. The eyes may not be able to tolerate contacts however or may grow intolerant with time and other measures might be necessary. Corneal cross-linking may be beneficial in some cases.
