Keratoconus is a non-inflammatory degenerative disorder of the eye in which structural changes within the cornea cause it to thin and change to a more conical shape, which can cause substantial distortion of vision.

The small specks, ”bugs” shapes or clouds that you sometimes may see moving in your field of vision are called FLOATERS. They are a frequently visible visual phenomena when looking at a plain background, such as a blank wall or blue sky.  

Presbyopia occurs when the lens of the eye becomes less flexible. Specifically, the lens becomes stiffer, hindering its ability to bend and flatten in order to focus light on the retina. As a result, the eye has difficulty focusing on objects up close.

KeraVision Intacs are two small, transparent crescents or arcs. They are made of the same material (PMMA) that has been safely used for over 50 years as intraocular lens material to treat patients with cataracts.
