Contact lens help and advice
Posted: Wed 16 Oct 2019 2:46 pm
It has been about 18 months since I have been diagnosed with KC and am now looking at getting contact lenses.
Moorefields have told me that it is only a mild case and there has been no movement in my eyes in both checkups since the initial diagnosis and that I should have no problem having soft contact lenses.
I have tried a few soft lenses since then but have had no luck with being able to see that well with them and my optician just seems to want to push RGP lenses, even though Moorefields said that this is definitely not needed.
Has anyone with mild/moderate KC had any luck with soft contact lenses, presumably toric lenses??
If so, what make/brand were they??
Thanks!
