Hello all,

So I have keratoconus since 17 years or so. I am 45. Collagen cross linking was done 13 years ago. Been on glasses ever since . Recent years I was introduced to scleral lens options.. went to three reputed clinics but the trials have gone unpleasant.. my eye gets inflamed and hurts and then we just let go off the process. I know it’s a trial and frustrating but my eyes just seem to not like it. I was asking doctor what are my other options . Apparently I am 20/40 in my right eye and even with glasses there can’t be much correction there. I am 20/60 on my left eye and with glasses they can get to 20/40. I am just thinking of living with glasses because lens is just not seeming to be an option for me .. thoughts?

I have had keratoconus for maybe 17 years or so, underwent collagen cross linking in both eyes around 14 years ago .. the progression may have halted but as with most I have a terrible vision.. over the years glasses have helped somewhat and I have been able to do everything I typically do (except reading books for long as that’s stressful with the poor vision) .. over last few years I was educated about scleral lenses .. I went through a few purely horrible sessions for fitment ..
I don’t think I can do this , have any of yall been okay with just sticking to glasses ? 😢.. that’s what I told my doc ..

Any great keratoconus doctors in Houston, Texas ? Please let me know if you have any personal recommendations? Thanks !
