Synopsis

This book covers many aspects of Holcomb C3-R® for Keratoconus and other conditions that cause the cornea to be weakened. It also discusses how this technology can help to treat difficult corneal infections, autoimmune diseases that affect the cornea, and help to reduce vision fluctuations in patients following radial keratotomy. The aim of this book is for patients and physicians with the goal to promote education and provide much-needed hope for patients suffering from Keratoconus, since too many of them are told by their doctors, “Your only option is hard contacts or a cornea transplant”. Modern Keratoconus treatments such as Holcomb C3-R® and Intacs® have been available for over 10 years now that can improve patients’ lives and allow them to lead a full life once again and not worry about needing a cornea transplant.
