This potential treatment was mentioned by Professor Buckley at our 2018 AGM (see the article about the AGM in our Summer 2018 newsletter).

A hoped for trial in the UK doesn't seem to have materialised and I'm afraid trials like this often take several years to publish any results. It would be wonderful if a simple eye drop could stop KC progressing, so we'll definitely let people know as soon as there's any news.
