Keratoconus curable? The big QUESTION?

Surely those suffering from keratoconus already asked this, but ultimately keratoconus curable? In my opinion yes, of course there is currently no fully effective treatment , but the science is well advanced and still advancing day by day and today we have several treatments for this annoying disease that is keratoconus .

When someone is diagnosed with keratoconus begin by adapting the person to contact lenses , this does not solve simply method is the most " easy and convenient " to try the patient to see better . All treatments have this objective : make the patient see better .

However it is normal keratoconus forward and there have even a visit to the operating theater . At this stage it is normal to opt for one of two treatments, which are implants rings ferrara or Crosslink . The latter is a new treatment that will explain better soon .

None of these methods will solve keratoconus , but will try to stop the evolution of it . For along with contact lenses the patient has a better view. Minimally invasive methods are compared for example to the cornea transplant.



Most people can usually only make a living with these little treatments and live the rest of my life taking the sleeping keratoconus .

However there are others who even after these treatments keratoconus continues to advance . I am one of them who did not give another chance left but to do the transplant cornea .

Here we usually ask, but with keratoconus transplant has cured ? One thing is certain no one hears about people who were transplanted and restored to keratoconus , however a transplant is not equal to go pull a tooth , ie we have to be careful not to reject many exist, but for standard quality vision we have after it worth the effort .

The objective is always the same : improve vision and corneal transplant is the ultimate treatment to combat this disease .

To conclude my answer to this question is simple : do not worry if you have keratoconus cure, worry - ve is currently well and if you have keratoconus estaja attentive ( a ) the possible evolutions among doctors be able to find the best treatment for itself.
