On thursday may 7th we had our first two intacs patients in our eye clinic in Turkey. Mr MM and mr SY both got intacs rings around their corneas to prevent future changes in the corneas and at the same time left them free from glasses.
Keratoconus is an eye disease that makes the cornea irregular, thinner or pointy.
In time the disease can lead to big vision distortions and blindness.
With intacs the disease can be stopped from developing further complications. Its an easy treatment and is definately worth the cost.

For the mildest form of keratoconus, eyeglasses or soft contact lenses may help. But as the disease progresses and the cornea thins and becomes increasingly more irregular in shape, glasses or soft contacts no longer provide adequate vision correction.
