Re: Do you ever go a day without thinking about keratoconus?

Re: New RGP user. Advice needed
I'd echo Cripps comments, get back into the loop with the NHS. You and I appear to be twins; early 40s, the 15 years and could not get on with RGPs to begin with. Well done on lasting 5 months, I gave up much sooner than that. The Optometry team at Leicester Royal changed me over to soft lenses (wit...

Re: How do you deal with 'bad eye' days?
Been having a lot of bad eye days recently, I'm coming up on two months coping with just one lens. For me, lots of lubrication helps, also try to give the eyes a rest from the lens at the weekends as much as possible.
