In 2022, the Keratoconus Center in the Netherlands will conduct research into a new innovative keratoconus lens. This new glass should promote visual functioning for daily activities. Especially in today’s digital world, seeing sight and contrast is more important than ever. <\/p>\n
Current treatment of the keratoconus condition consists of contact lens wear and cross-linking. Wearing contact lenses is a limiting factor to track progress towards cross-linking.<\/p>\n
When keratoconus is diagnosed at an early age, wearing keratoconus lenses instead of contact lenses may improve the progression of keratoconus.<\/p>\n
Also, the possession of glasses in addition to contact lenses will still be able to sufficiently support the daily visual performance, so that the patient remains employable for a long time and sustainably. In addition to the visual performance with the keratoconus glasses, work productivity, work\/study pleasure will be examined, which is reflected in an improvement in quality of life.<\/p>\n
Possibly owning glasses with keratoconus lenses improves tolerance to contact lenses and possibly even prevents complications of contact lenses.<\/p>\n
For young keratoconus patients, the outcome of wearing these spectacle lenses may determine better vision, in addition to being able to wear contact lenses.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
