Contact lenses advice please
Posted: Sat 20 Apr 2019 3:48 pm
Hello all
I am new to the forum.
I was diagnosed with KC almost 3 years ago after a routine check up at a Boots opticians. I was referred to Royal Free hospital in London and the doctor confirmed I have KC.
I was sent to a an opticians called Miltons in Hampstead who specialise in providing hard lenses for KC sufferers.
However the lenses I have being prescribed fall out of often and I struggle to put them in. Is this a common problem?
I would prefer glasses but I do not get good vision with glasses at all.
Also Royal free hospital haven’t offered me cross linking...should I ask about it at my next appointment or do the NHS only offer cross linking in certain instances?
Many thanks
