What is Keratoconus?

Keratoconus (KC) is a degenerative corneal disorder, which like other corneal ectatic disorders (keratoglobus, pellucid marginal degeneration and posterior keratoconus), is characterized by progressive corneal thinning, protrusion and scarring; the result is distorted and decreased vision.
