Keratoconus is a progressive eye condition in which the cornea gradually becomes thin and bulges outward into a cone-like shape. This irregular shape affects how light enters the eye, causing distorted and blurry vision.
Keratoconus usually develops during the teenage years or early adulthood and may gradually worsen over time if left untreated.
Early diagnosis and timely treatment are extremely important to prevent vision deterioration and avoid advanced corneal damage.
Common symptoms of keratoconus include:
- Blurred or distorted vision
- Frequent changes in glasses power
- Increased sensitivity to light
- Glare and halos at night
- Difficulty driving at night
- Eye strain and headaches
- Double vision in one eye
- Progressive worsening of eyesight
If you experience these symptoms, you should consult a qualified keratoconus specialist in Dhaka for a detailed corneal evaluation.
The exact cause of keratoconus is not fully understood, but several factors may increase the risk, including:
- Family history of keratoconus
- Excessive eye rubbing
- Allergies and chronic eye irritation
- Thin cornea
- Genetic factors
- Certain connective tissue disorders
Early screening is important, especially for young patients with rapidly changing eye power.
Advanced diagnostic technology is essential for accurate keratoconus detection and treatment planning.
Dr. Ashraful Huq performs detailed corneal assessments using modern imaging systems to evaluate:
- Corneal thickness

Treatment for keratoconus depends on the severity and progression of the condition. Dr. Ashraful Huq provides comprehensive and personalized keratoconus treatment in Bangladesh using advanced techniques.
1. Corneal Collagen Cross-Linking (C3R / CXL)
Corneal Cross-Linking is one of the most effective treatments for stopping the progression of keratoconus. This procedure strengthens the corneal tissue using riboflavin eye drops and ultraviolet light.
Benefits of Cross-Linking:
- Helps stabilize the cornea
- Prevents further progression
- Reduces the need for corneal transplant
- Safe and minimally invasive procedure
Cross-Linking is especially effective when keratoconus is diagnosed early.
Patients with mild to moderate keratoconus may benefit from specially designed contact lenses that improve vision quality.
These may include:
- Rigid Gas Permeable (RGP) lenses
- Scleral lenses
- Hybrid contact lenses
Specialty lenses can provide clearer and more stable vision than glasses in many keratoconus patients.
