UK Keratoconus Self-Help and Support Association

Hello Everyone,

This is my first post, I am a sufferer of KC and have been for about 10 years. My condition is not as bad as some of the stories I have read here on this forum (I have been lurking for a few weeks without posting) but the KC still gives me problems.

My KC is not too severe and I manage relatively well with the Softperm lenses in both eyes. With the lenses in my vision is very good, without them in I can see okay with my left eye, although the right sees only blur. My main problem is intolerance with the lenses - and the widely mentioned "bad eye days".

I just want to say thanks for all the information on this forum and for the advice and suggestions made by the forum members - this has given me a much better understanding of KC, lenses and everything else.

I'll try not to lurk so much in future and hopefully post a lot more (and probably in time tell my full story)

Welcome on board.

I'm glad to see you have broken your posting duck.

I'll look forward to more posts from you in the future.

Sweet hello there and welcome to the forum! It is nice to have you here, and am glad that you have found it a lot of help! It is ok to lurk hehe, but you know it is nicer to drop in and say hi, as then we can reply to you!! Hehehe!

Take care, and am glad that you manage ok with softperm lenses. That is a really positive thing! Hope to hear from you soon!

Hi Lock and welcome!

Good to hear you see quite well with your lenses, tolerance is a funny thing isn't it.

Ah well maybe 2006 will bring with it advances in science that can help here.

Glad your not 'lurking' anymore, without my lenses in I would have fallen over you.
