Keratoconus Consultation

Strengthen Your Vision. Stabilize Your Sight. Protect Your Future.

Keratoconus is a progressive corneal condition where the clear front surface of the eye becomes thin and cone-shaped, leading to distorted vision. At Zamindar Microsurgical Eye Centre, we offer comprehensive diagnostics and advanced care options, including Topography, Pentacam Imaging, Specialised Contact Lens Trials, and C3R Treatment (Corneal Collagen Cross-Linking) to halt progression and improve visual stability.

Who Should Seek a Keratoconus Consultation?

You may benefit from a keratoconus evaluation if you experience:

Blurred or distorted vision that’s not corrected with standard glasses
Increasing dependence and frequent changes in spectacle prescription
Glare and halos around lights, especially at night
Eye strain and sensitivity to light
Family history of keratoconus or previous diagnosis of corneal thinning

Early diagnosis allows timely intervention to preserve vision and prevent further corneal damage.

What to Expect During Your Consultation

Our keratoconus workup is thorough, combining advanced imaging with personalized care:

Registration & Check-In : Our staff will guide you through onboarding and ensure smooth documentation.
Patient History Review : We assess your symptoms, vision fluctuations, family history, and lifestyle impact.
Vision Assessment & Refraction : Determines baseline vision and evaluates the extent of distortion or irregular astigmatism.
Slit Lamp Examination : Visual inspection of corneal surface for signs of thinning or protrusion.
Dilated Examination : Allows detailed examination of the retina to rule out other issues.
Advanced Imaging (If Keratoconus is Suspected) :

Topography – Maps the curvature of the cornea
Pachymetry – Measures corneal thickness
Pentacam Imaging – 3D scan that assesses anterior and posterior corneal surfaces

Patients may undergo a trial with scleral or rigid gas permeable lenses for enhanced visual correction.

Treatment Option: C3R Therapy

If progression is confirmed, we offer Corneal Collagen Cross-Linking (C3R) a minimally invasive treatment that strengthens cornea and halts further thinning. Performed safely under topical anesthesia, it stabilizes the cornea and helps preserve vision over the long term.

Estimated Duration

The keratoconus consultation, including all investigations, may take approximately 90 to 120 minutes, especially if advanced imaging and contact lens trials are performed. Our team ensures clarity at every step with minimal wait time and structured follow-up advice.
