Request for help

Postby bledabs » Thu 09 Apr 2009 5:12 pm

Hello everyone,
I have just joined this website minutes ago. I have done some research on my condition (Keratoconus). I live in the US and I need more information on this. I have gone through so many contacts to just fit my right eye and it is still not helping. I have had this condition over 20 years and it is getting worse.
My ophthalmologist informed me about Dr. Brain Boxer Wachler and the procesures of Intacts - C3R. I have no one to talk to about this who really understands what I am going through. I'm afraid if something is not done soon, I may lose my sight in my right eye.
Someone please reply soon! Thank you.

Welcome to the forum. I have moved your post to a new string: I think you have probably got a better chance of getting some replies this way.

All the best

The Yahoo Keratoconis Forum might be of inetrest. This is a US based forum and I think there are some people on there who have had the treatment you are asking about.
