Another publication from the Corneal Research Group! 🤩
Their systematic review found impairments in several key quality of life domains of patients with keratoconus—all of which should be taken into account when managing the condition.

Keratoconus patients managed non-surgically report considerable declines in quality of life, physically and psychologically. Contact lenses can improve visual function but are limited in addressing broader QoL impacts.

A new @BJOphthalmology review from our Corneal Research Group explores how long it takes for the #cornea to stabilise after stopping contact lens wear.
Their findings can guide when patients should stop contact lens wear for accurate testing.
