Better correction than with spectacles ?

Hi, I am supposed to have good vision with spectacles (between 20/25 and 20/20) but I have a lot of ghosting, plus the vision is still blurry when I wear them. For now only my left eye is keratoconic (my right eye is fine, I have 20/20 without correction on that eye), and I can see a huge difference...

Re: KC problem

You are in a really rare situation as like Anne said (which is consistent with what you can read on the Internet), it is uncommon to have KC recurring in one eye after a transplant.

Re: To cross-link or not to cross-link, that is the question

Thank you very much for your answer :) So there aren't any clear cut answers to your question I think that's the point !

Hi, I am not from from UK (I am from France), but I thought I could still post here to get answers to my questions because this forum seems very dynamic and friendly :) I hope it is not a problem.
