Today is the #WorldKeratoconusDay, a date of awareness and a great opportunity to talk about this cornea affection. 
What is it? It’s a degenerative pathology that affects the cornea, and makes it thinner over time, making it project itself in the shape of a cone.This change in the cornea shape prevents the rays of light from focusing correctly. This causes blurry vision and light sensitivity.
By being based over the sclera (the white part of the eye), the scleral lenses don’t touch the cornea surface, which makes them very comfortable.
You can make an appointment with Dr. Helena Wang, OD, our scleral lenses specialist, at www.precisioneyemd.com
