Keratoconus Management

Advanced Keratoconus Management & Specialty Contact Lenses

Reclaiming your vision and protecting your long-term eye health with customized, state-of-the-art care.

Keratoconus is a progressive eye condition where the cornea thins and gradually bulges into a cone-like shape, leading to blurred vision and increased sensitivity to light. Because standard glasses and soft contact lenses often fail to provide adequate vision for keratoconic eyes, specialized, expert management is essential.

At Vision Source, we provide comprehensive, cutting-edge keratoconus care designed to track your condition accurately, stabilize your corneal health, and dramatically improve your visual clarity.

Specialty Contact Lenses & Scleral Lenses

When standard vision correction isn't enough, specialty contact lenses can be life-changing. We specialize in custom-fitting advanced lenses tailored to the unique irregularities of your cornea.

• Scleral Contact Lenses (Our Primary Emphasis): Unlike traditional lenses that rest on the sensitive cornea, scleral lenses are large-diameter rigid gas permeable lenses that vault completely over the corneal surface, resting comfortably on the white part of the eye (the sclera). This creates a smooth, fluid-filled liquid reservoir over the irregularities of your cornea, providing exceptional comfort and crisp, clear vision.
• Custom Rigid Gas Permeable (RGP) Lenses: Specially designed to provide a stable, smooth optical surface over an irregular cornea.
• Hybrid Lenses: Combining the sharp optics of a rigid center with the skirt comfort of a soft lens.

Precision Progression Tracking & Advanced Diagnostics

Keratoconus is a progressive condition, meaning it can change over time. Effectively managing it requires catching these changes before your vision worsens.

We utilize specialized corneal mapping devices and diagnostic software to precisely track the shape, thickness, and progression of your keratoconus.
​​​​​​​
Why Tracking Matters: By capturing highly detailed, 3D measurements of your cornea year-over-year, we can monitor structural changes with microscopic precision. This allows us to make proactive, highly informed decisions about your treatment plan.

Identifying Candidates for Corneal Cross-Linking (CXL)

Our advanced tracking software plays a critical role in identifying if and when your keratoconus is actively progressing. If we detect ongoing changes, we can pinpoint exactly when a patient will benefit from Corneal Cross-Linking (CXL).

• What is CXL? It is a minimally invasive, specialized medical procedure that strengthens the corneal tissue and halts the progression of keratoconus, preventing further vision loss.
• Our Role: We perform the critical pre-operative tracking to determine eligibility, refer you to top corneal specialists for the procedure, and manage your comprehensive post-operative care and specialty lens fittings.
