Join us in raising awareness for World Keratoconus Day and supporting those affected by this vision condition. Let's spread hope and education!
Get ready to raise awareness and show support for those living with keratoconus on November 10, World Keratoconus Day! This day was first established in 2014 by the National Keratoconus Foundation to educate and inform people about this eye condition. Keratoconus affects the shape of the cornea, causing vision problems such as blurred or distorted vision. But with early detection and proper treatment, individuals with keratoconus can still live full and active lives. So let's take a moment to celebrate those who are fighting this condition and spread knowledge and understanding about it on this special day.
