I really found some new insight from this. I appreciate you setting aside the
time and effort to put this stuff up. I have to admit, I more than likely spent about 1 hours on
your website. Absolutely worth the time, however.

Thanks for sharing these images. I’ve been struggling with this for 17 years and still fail miserably when trying to explain to people what and how I actually see. I’m at the advance stage now and legally blind in one eye with the other closly copying! It’s a truly awful frustrating condition but I’m still here and able to moan about it so that’s a positive…lol. Thanks again x

I hope things go well and that you settle on a good doctor soon. We’re fortunate to live in the age of very modern medicine, and high tech materials for correction lenses. Good luck with your vision…. there are many options becoming available. Don’t hesitate to take your own knowledge to ask hard questions, and if you are not comfortable with the doctor, find another.

I have keratoconus on both eyes, it affects my vision since my fourteens but only last year i was diagnosed. So after years of glasses changes every 6 months i finally found a doctor who identified the problem (the others just said that I had high astigmatism) and started using rigid contact lenses on December, 27. There’s no way you can express what you feel when you finally see, man SEVEN YEARS with blurry vision even using glasses, I just forgot how sharp world is.
Of course the whole discovery process scares a lot, but knowing what the problem is is far more better.
Great blog, it helped to psychologically prepare for what may happen in a near future =]
