What is keratoconus?<\/h2><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
\n

Keratoconus<\/strong> It is a chronic eye condition in which the cornea gradually thins and bulges, taking on an irregular, cone-shaped form. This leads to increasing astigmatism, image distortion and a deterioration in visual acuity, particularly after dark. The condition usually develops slowly and can be difficult to detect in its early stages, which is why early diagnosis and regular eye checks are so important.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

What causes keratoconus and how can you recognise it?<\/h2><\/div><\/div>\n\n

The symptoms of keratoconus often develop gradually and may go unnoticed for a long time. This is why diagnosis requires a series of precise imaging examinations to assess the shape, thickness and stability of the cornea.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n
