 Keratoconus is a corneal degeneration characterized by bilateral conical protusion and corneal thinning. The course of the disease varies from slight irregular astigmatism to severe visual impairment due to increasing protrusion and subepithelial scarring. There is no treatment available that can stop keratoconus progression. Thus, because of its progressive nature, keratoconus is the most frequent reason for keratoplasty worldwide in the past 3 decades.
