Keratoconus is an eye condition where the clear front part of the eye (cornea) becomes thin and bulges out like a cone. This shape change can cause blurry vision, sensitivity to light, and difficulty seeing clearly. It usually starts during teenage years and gradually worsens. Glasses might help in the beginning, but some people might need special contact lenses or even surgery to improve their vision.

Special tests like corneal topography and pachymetry can detect if the cornea is becoming cone-shaped. Early stages are subtle, but regular eye check-ups can help catch it earlier. Various options are available for managing and treating the condition once detected.
