Well I now know why she doesn't wear contacts :-) Say hello to my new rigid gas permeable contact lenses (yay NHS!) - shame they didn't have them in Velma sweater orange.  -15.5 on the left, -7.5 on the right. |

Those are some very thick contacts I have kerataconus which is why they are unusual lenses, I have to get these via hospital not your regular optician. You would not want to be out solving a mystery wearing these. |

so thats were your cornea gets progressively thinner. not too many people get that only about 1 in every 2000 do.

No, kerataconus is where your cornea delaminates and becomes distorted and no longer focusses correctly. In terms of focussing the cornea does the heavy lifting with the lens doing the fine tuning. |
