It is a change in the shape of the cornea, where it transforms from round to conical, leading to weakened vision and distorted sight.
Here are some possible treatment options:
Medication: Using moisturizing eye drops to relieve symptoms of dryness and itching.
Glasses or contact lenses: For less severe cases, to correct vision and reduce distortion.
Rigid contact lenses: Considered effective for improving vision and reducing distortion, as they help direct light properly onto the cornea.
Surgical treatment: For severe cases, such as (corneal transplantation, and corneal cross-linking).
