Yes I am also knackered and more so on a bad vision day.
In places like Tesco i wander round with uncorrected vision because otherwise the lights give me a headache.

Hey there! Glad that you are posting more! :D

I am always tired especially if I am not wearing lenses. It is so hard when we can't see and we get more tired with our brains trying to see something!

Hoping that you feel better soon! :D

I think it is harder as well though as I only see out of one eye! Hopefully now that I have my new lens for my grafted eye I can see with both!!! :D

Hi Joe!

KC is so different in everybody and most find that we get good and bad days. Days when you just can't put your lenses in, when your eye might be too painful or dry, or you just can't be bothered to try!!

I find that good days far outweigh the bad but it is always worth remembering to look after our eyes as we never know when a bad day will sneak up on us!!! :wink: :roll: :twisted:

While I was in th "lens" wearing stage of KC, my vision would vary by a line, not only between days but during a day!

Bad eye days were not too frequent for me, but when I had one, I really couldn't even get a lens into my eye.

Joe,

Have a look at this excellent article, which explains why we tend to have Good eye days and Bad eye days.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

this has been linked to toxic living and especially heavy metal toxification.

I used to be like that...

Hello to all,

Have you had this chronic tiredness before having KC problems ?

Do you think tiredness is caused because of sight problems or perhaps, it is caused by the biological agent which is responsible of keratoconus.

Are you numerous to have KC and being whithout chronic tiredness ?

Bye.
