What is the Cornea?
The cornea is the transparent front layer of the eye, covering the iris and pupil. It works like a clear windshield, helping to focus light onto the retina so we can see clearly. It also protects the inner parts of the eye from dust, germs, and damage.
What is Keratoconus?
Keratoconus is a condition where the cornea becomes thin and bulges into a cone shape, leading to blurry, distorted vision. It typically starts in teenage years and progresses over time. Early detection and consistent monitoring are crucial for managing the condition and preserving vision.
Common Symptoms of Keratoconus
Oculoplastic surgery is recommended for individuals who have conditions affecting the eyes, eyelids, tear ducts, or the structures around the eyes.
Blurred or distorted vision
Increased light sensitivity
Frequent changes in eyeglass power
