Beyond Blurry Vision: Understanding Keratoconus
Early detection and specialized care can help protect your vision.
Did you know your cornea can change shape? Keratoconus is a progressive eye condition that can cause blurry or distorted vision, increased nearsightedness, and astigmatism. A normal cornea has a smooth shape and clear vision, while a keratoconus cornea takes on a cone-like shape that distorts vision.
- Onset: Usually appears during early adulthood (teens to 20s) and progresses for 10 to 20 years.
- Causes: Strongly linked to genetics and to eye allergies, including aggressive eye rubbing.
Signs to Watch For
- Frequent changes in your prescription
- Blurry or distorted vision
- Halos or glare around lights
- Difficulty seeing at night
- Light sensitivity
- Allergies and frequent eye rubbing
