First of all, Keratoconus is caused by the imbalance of enzymes within the cornea. This leads to high levels of damaging “reactive species” chemicals. As a result, reactive species include. Hydrogen peroxide, nitric oxide, and superoxides. Therefore, Keratoconus patients are not able to clear away the normal amount. Especially if reactive species are normally produced.

The poor clearance of the good enzymes (Catalase and Superoxide dismutase) are not properly functioning. As a result, the toxic accumulation of the reactive species. And will eventually cause damage in the cornea. Consequently, there are some genetic reasoning that explain why the good enzymes do not properly function. And non-genetic sources also increase the reactive species. Such include ultraviolet light sun exposure, eye rubbing. And also chronic eye irritation and poorly fit contact lenses.

In conclusion, we highly recommend that Keratoconus patients protect their eyes carefully. Always use 100% UV blocking sunglasses with the wrap-around design. The wrap-around style minimizes the amount of light coming in from the sides.
