Keratoconus (KC) is a bilateral, progressive, noninflammatory ectatic condition in which there is conical protrusion of a thinned central cornea. Patients experience significant visual impairment from the resultant irregular astigmatism and high myopia. The worldwide prevalence of this condition is estimated to be 1.38 per 1,000.1 KC has been found to affect all ethnicities, although the prevalence and incidence are higher among South Asians and Middle Easterners compared with those of European ancestry.2 The condition affects both sexes, and there are contradictory studies on whether the prevalence differs significantly between the sexes.3
