none i know of.... however we can all protect our eyes from damage such as scarring and ulcers by following a good hygiene routine, and by listening to your eyes... if they are sore- take the lenses out etc...

Also, have a look at a thread on this forum called 'Will we get feedback from this conference?' posted on 27th May 2010 (with apologies for not knowing how to post a link to it!) It gives some useful tips from an eminent US scientist on how to look after our corneas.

Re: Tips for containing/stopping KC
as mentioned if your eyes are sore try not to wear your lenses, nothing can be done via diet/exercise etc to stop the progression of KC but scars can make the condition worse.
this is not easy however, my eyes are sore most days but i need to work and have a life so i just persist!
