Re: preservative-free saline

Hi Steven, The only one I'm aware of that is fully preservative free is ami-dose. It comes in clear tubes with green writing. On the surface it may look unbelievably expensive as it says "sterile till open" which makes you think it's single use, which maybe it is meant to be. I just put th...

Re: Keraflex

Ok who is doing Keraflex? Hopefully you got your RGP out? Was quite a bit ago so reality hope. :) Yes suction tips are the way to go. Personally I use these because you can balance the lens on the back part for the really advanced KC many stages beyond using RGPs. No transplant so works for me. http...

Re: Advanced KC options

Good afternoon could anyone give me any options available for someone with advanced KC. I was not suitsble for CXL a few years back roughly 6years I think.

Re: Scleral wearers - Which saline do you use? - POLL

Few different ones the UV treated one first (kinda handy as small and has a cap you can put back on), Steripod which is ok but once the tops off is a pain to transport, Ocupure (green bottle?) is very ok but also gonna try the Tesco one since... it's in Tesco. How'd you find the suckers? Ever had su...

Re: driving and KC

I thought that at least for gaining a licence it had recently changed? That there is now some form of field of vision test? For example my right eye is useless so I think now I'd need to get tested fully for that. I don't drive and one of the excuses I use for not retrying my test is that using one ...

Re: Piggybacking - more advice

Hi Kieran, You'll be ok. The air optix are meant for sleeping in etc so pretty great at that. The hard obviously not but still. Anyways I used to switch the soft lens for a fresh wet one half way through the day just to help stop it drying out a bit. Generally is like a breath of fresh air. Hope it ...

Re: Is your KC mild, moderate advanced or severe?

Here are a few of my scans from a year or maybe two ago. The right looks fairly dramatic but I get around with my left pretty well (corrected it's near 20/20). Right: K-max 84.3D ( :lol: ), Thinnest Local 362um. Left: K-max 47.3D, Thinnest Local 451um. http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y272/andytrail...

Re: Cross-linking Scotland

Hi Emma, There are potentially lots of options however your consultant would be best positioned to inform you of them. That said they do seem to have their prefered options so they she/he might not try "everything". CXL (basically) only seeks to stabilize not significantly improve vision (...
