Keratoconus is a progressive condition where the usually round cornea begins to thin and bulge into a cone-like shape. This irregular shape can lead to blurred or distorted vision and sensitivity to light and glare, making regular activities like reading or driving difficult.
At Envision Eye Care, we provide personalized, supportive care and can co-manage your treatment if you require corneal cross-linking or other surgical solutions. We are also highly skilled in fitting specialized contact lenses designed for patients with keratoconus, helping you achieve better vision.
If you’ve been told that contact lenses won’t work for your keratoconus, we encourage you to visit us! We specialize in fitting patients with customized lenses, even in challenging cases.
