pentacam
Posted: Wed 25 Jun 2014 7:07 am
hi all
I had a pentacam scan in November (2 years after crosslinking on my left eye) which showed that KC progression had stopped. this was good news, however it also showed that there was still progression in my right eye, but not very much to be worried about.
I have 2 questions:
1. how long should i wait until my next scan to see if there has been any changes? should i wait a year or would now be enough time?
2. what is the average age that KC stops progressing? Im 31 now, so after the next scan im going to consider whether i need cxl in my right eye. The vision is currently good, but obviously I dont want it to get worse,
thanks
Dan
