Hola emorfa, bienvenido al foro.

I am afraid that you ask an impossible question. One of the optometrists who posts here has described keratoconus as a ' bespoke' condition. By that, I think, she meant that each of us is different and a lens that proves perfect for one of us may not be suitable for another.

You also give a long list of lens types. Your list is not exhaustive; the lens that I found best is not included. is this the full list of lens types available in the Dominican Republic?

Every good wish.

Andrew

Hi Emorfa,
I think you will need to buy the RGPs from a qualified and experienced optician as they need to ensure that the lenses fit properly. i wouldn't recommend getting the first pair over the internet.... maybe replacement lenses if neccessary.

Hi Emorfa,
You're obviously in a difficult situation, but no-one with KC should even think of getting their lenses via the internet. As Andrew and Melissa have said, a KC lens HAS to be fitted to the particular shape of your eye, and all KC eyes are different. Wearing a badly fitting contact lens can do serious damage to the cornea and leave you worse off than before. So please get your lenses from a contact lens fitter who can examine your eyes and fit the best lens for you.
All the best
Anne

Hi Emorfa,

I only just saw this post.

What problems do you have with the practice that sells lenses for KC? I used to work in the Caribbean (Trinidad) so I do understand the situation there. Let me know some more details to see if I can be of more help.
