Causes and Progression of Keratoconus

Keratoconus typically begins during the teenage years and can progress into adulthood. While the exact cause is unknown, it is believed to be linked to genetic factors, frequent eye rubbing, and conditions like allergies or connective tissue disorders.

At Rose Optometry, we specialise in the treatment of keratoconus. Our advanced contact lenses are designed to correct the irregular shape of the cornea, providing exceptional vision. Most patients fitted with these lenses can avoid the need for surgery, allowing them to enjoy clear, comfortable vision without invasive procedures.
