Understanding it
Keratoconus Treatment at NeoVision
Keratoconus weakens the cornea so it bulges into a cone, usually starting in the teenage years. Glasses keep failing because the surface itself is irregular. The modern strategy is two-pronged: corneal collagen cross-linking (C3R) strengthens the cornea to stop progression, while vision is rehabilitated with specialty contact lenses; advanced cases may need ring segments or corneal transplantation. The single most important factor is timing — cross-linking preserves the vision you have, so early diagnosis through corneal topography is everything.
