Remedies for Keratoconus

There is Hope for Irregular Shaped Eyes

If you have keratoconus we have options for your condition. Corneal cross-linking is a surgery which is akin to adding structural support to the cornea to prevent it from becoming too weak and distorted. It can help improve vision and prevent further deterioration of the cornea in conditions like keratoconus.

Though this is the most effective procedure to slow down or stop it from worsening, we also have specialty contact lenses to help as well.

Who is Myopia Management for?

Myopia Management is recommended for any child with myopia. This treatment is effective in slowing the progression of myopia in older children and young adults, when myopia is expected to progress faster.

We also provide Ortho-k, a system for adults that is an alternative to laser vision correction (LASIK) and provides clear vision without using glasses or day-time contact lenses.

I had an excellent initial visit and scleral contact lens fitting. They very clearly know what they are doing and were highly competent each stop of the way. I wish I would have found these guys sooner. I think they are the place to go for IPL treatments.
