UK Keratoconus Self-Help and Support Association

Hi so thinking about going ahead with CXL shortly...

I'm being badgered by family to get myself up to Moorfields. I looked on their website and under 'make appointment' it lets you specify any consultant you wish to contact, can anyone recommend one to speak to? I find it odd that under 'condition and treatment' they don't even have keratoconus or CXL

Surely we aren't that rare!?

Do you think this is the right way of thinking or would I be just as well to go to my local private hospital just down the road.

Assuming you're considering having CXL done privately at Moorfields, quite a few Anterior Segment consultants at Moorfields carry out this procedure privately. I understand recommending specific consultants on the forum is discouraged but if you phone John Saunders Suite which is the private wing of Moorfields they should be able to give you a list of the anterior segment consultants doing crosslinking. If you don't get any joy send me a pm and I'd be happy to reply
