I am writing this blog as a long term sufferer of Keratoconus in both eyes. Keratoconus is a degenerative disease which causes the cornea to become cone shaped and thinner. My left eye also has scarring on it due to an ulcer several years ago. I have no sight in the eye just dark and light and the transplant is my only hope of seeing in this eye. It starts from the bottom upwards.
I am a 28 year old woman who has suffered from Keratoconus for 12 years. I work for The University of Kent in the Innovation and Enterprise Department and am married to a wonderful man named Tim.
