What is Keratoconus?

Keratoconus is a condition that affects the cornea, the clear outer layer of the eye. In keratoconus, the cornea gradually thins and bulges into a cone-like shape, which can lead to distorted and blurry vision. This condition often affects both eyes and usually begins to manifest during the teenage years or early adulthood.

Diagnosing Keratoconus

At Cornea Consultants of Nashville, we have experienced ophthalmologists and eye surgeons who are trained in diagnosing and treating keratoconus. During your eye exam, we use advanced imaging technology to map the curvature of your cornea and identify any irregularities that may indicate keratoconus.

Treating Keratoconus

Several treatment options are available for keratoconus, depending on the severity of the condition. In the early stages, eyeglasses or contact lenses may be sufficient to correct vision. However, as the disease progresses, more advanced treatments may be necessary.

One such treatment is called corneal cross-linking, a minimally invasive procedure that uses ultraviolet light and special eye drops to strengthen the cornea and slow the progression of keratoconus. We also offer Intacs, small curved devices surgically placed in the cornea to reshape its curvature and improve vision.

Our experienced eye surgeons are skilled in performing these procedures and will work with you to determine the best course of treatment for your specific needs.
