The cornea usually has a round shape, like a ball.<\/p><p>Sometimes, however, the structure of the cornea is not strong enough to hold this round shape. Over time, the normal round curvature of the surface of the eye can bulge outward like a cone.

In some cases, keratoconus is diagnosed at a later age, but usually only when it is mild.<\/p><p>Keratoconus changes vision in two ways:<\/p><ul><li>As the cornea changes from the shape of a ball to the shape of a cone, the smooth surface is also deformed. This change is called irregular astigmatism, which cannot be completely corrected with glasses.<\/li><li>As the front of the cornea becomes sharp, the eye becomes more myopic (poor vision from a

In this procedure, which is performed under local anesthesia (the patient&#8217;s eye is numb with drops), the doctor creates channels in the cornea and inserts the rings into these channels. Rings help flatten the cornea and partially correct the conical shape caused by keratoconus.<\/li><li>Corneal cross-linking uses ultraviolet light therapy that can slow down or prevent the deterioration of keratoconus. In this procedure, the patient also receives local anesthesia. Drops of a drug containing riboflavin (vitamin B2) enter the eye for up to 30 minutes; then the eye is exposed to ultraviolet light for up to 30 minutes. The corneal crosslinking procedure is designed to strengthen the bonds between the cornea\u2019s collagen fibers and surrounding proteins, which can help keep the cornea from steepening.<\/li><\/ul><p>Not all patients with keratoconus are candidates for these treatments.
