Before and after - Crosslinking

Hi all First post here. Was diagnosed with KC in 2010 in my late teens-early 20s, and I have intracorneal rings in both eyes. The condition then improved greatly and I thought "that was it" and buried my head in the sand... how wrong I was, but hindsight is a wonderful thing I suppose. I'm...
