UK Keratoconus Self-Help and Support Association

Hello Over the past week or so, I've developed an issue with my right eye whereby I'm struggling to get clear vision out of this eye. It's like I get this hazy sensation (like trying to see out of the mist in the mornings in winter) such that I can't make out letters / images clearly with my right e...

Hey there I suffer from glare when driving when it’s dark and am looking for ways to try and limit the severity of this problem. I wear Kerasoft lenses, but switch to my semi sclerals when driving when it’s dark. Someone previously recommended I try anti-reflective lenses. I went into my local optic...

Hi Jugger, I live in the absolute middle of nowhere so driving isn't really optional for me. It's a half hour drive to the train station and the buses don't come anywhere near my house. Driving with KC is a challenge. I have RGP lenses, and a pair of sclerals as well, and the difficulty with glare,...

Hi there

I use the Kerasoft 2s. I tried the Kerasoft thin (not sure if that's the same as the Kerasoft 3 you refer to) but didn't get good results for comfort or sight.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Hello all, I use Kerasoft lenses and have recently started having issues where the heaviness the lenses put on my eyes (and the headache/ weariness I get in my eyes) kicks in far earlier than it did before. This issue started a few weeks. It used to happen after 8+ hours of wearing time, but is now ...

Hi all, I’ve been having some issues with my lenses such that I’ve only been able to wear the left one. I was walking home from work today on my way to the train station and all of a sudden I couldn’t see. I wondered what had gone wrong. I felt my left eye and my lens had fallen out. How exactly, I ...

Hi all, To try and help with my dry eyes, I use VitA-POS eye gel at night. I tried to get some this week and my pharmacy informed me that it is currently out of stock with the manufacturer and they don’t know when this issue will be resolved. Consequently, I’m looking for a substitute to use in the ...

Hi all

Thank you for your input and contributions.
