UK Keratoconus Self-Help and Support Association

Hello all,

Are there any people which have experiences with Ferrara rings or Intacts?
Are they itching on normal daily activities or quite comfortable?
And more important do they improve vision?
I've had UV-Crosslinking done in one eye but still my vision is only 60-70% with glasses or soft contact lens. Although I had posted before that my vision improved a lot after UV-Crosslinking but that was a wrong measurement from an eye doctor unfortunately.
Now I'm looking into new methods to get my vision improved in combination with soft contact lens or glasses. I have a scleral lens right now which improves vision but is quite uncomfortable (same for rigid lenses).

Thanks and regards,

Ronald

Hi Ronald

I have intacs, and have had them for almost a year now (doesn't time fly????). For me they are comfortable and generally I forget that they are in my right eye. For me, they have made a vast improvement to my vision.
