Abstract
The treatment and diagnosis of keratoconus has progressed in recent years. The development of devices for measuring both the anterior and posterior cornea has enabled diagnosis of early-stage keratoconus. Moreover, advances in aberrometers have enabled analysis of corneal aberrations and intraocular aberrations individually. These advances have led to dramatic changes in the treatment of keratoconus. Various treatment options including corneal cross-linking to stop progression of keratoconus, intracorneal ring implantation, contact lens treatment, and keratoplasty are being evaluated while taking into consideration changes in visual optics.
