Keratoconus:
Intro:
Keratoconus is a corneal disease with causes thinning and protrusion of the front surface of the eye (cornea). In advanced stages it appears to be a "cone-shaped" cornea. Keratoconus typically starts early in life and slowly progresses with age. Patients with keratoconus typically are unaware of the condition until they no longer see well with a simple pair of glasses. It can easily be detected by your ophthalmologist using a special picture test known as computerized corneal topography.
Cause:
Although it has never been proven, there is strong evidence that habitual eye rubbing may have something to do with the progression of keratoconus. Most experts agree that genetics play a large part in determining who will be affected.
Prognosis:
The prognosis for a patient with keratoconus is good. It typically does not lead to permanent blindness and in most cases rigid gas permeable contact lenses (RGPs) can correct the vision. Seldom does a patient need a corneal transplant to correct the condition. If this is the case, the transplant is successful in correcting the vision in 90% of cases.

Busy Work
Bad me, I didn't post anything yesterday. That was because I was too busy to bother even doing more than getting my email (okay, yes, I did visit a couple of places - but for the most part I didn't do any recreational computer work). "How busy can an unemployed person?" be you ask (and thank you for asking, you create a nice lead-in). First off, I hit all the job sites, along with the 3 major newspaper classified sites. Nothing much on those, except one place looking for an Admin Assistant to work with BOMs, procedures and drawings. This is really a Documentation position, but they are obviously trying to cheap out by classifying it as an AA job. I put in my resume anyway, as it still paid more than unemployment does. However, it was through a staffing agency, so I don't know where in the state the job is. The job hunting took a bit of time, then I had to get ready to leave.

84. Patientinformation Om Toppig Hornhinna (keratokonus)

Ögonfakta
Toppig hornhinna
Vad är keratoconus?
Den medicinska termen för toppig hornhinna är keratoconus. Keratoconus är en sjukdom som ger sig till känna först i de övre tonåren. Det är en medfödd "felprogrammering" av hornhinnans tillväxt, som resulterar i ökande, småningom svårkorrigerade brytningsfel. Hornhinnan skall normalt ha en lagom välvd och jämn främre yta som medger att ljuset bryts symmetriskt mot ögats lins och vidare mot näthinnan . Vid keratoconus sker en försvagning av hornhinnans uppbyggnad, så att formen förändras till en ökad "toppighet". En viss grad av ärftlighet tycks förekomma och tillståndet är vanligast bland pojkar.
Hur yttrar sig keratoconus?
Keratoconus medför en gradvis försämrad syn som brukar stabiliseras av sig själv efter 40 års ålder. De förändringar som sker efter detta är regel små och långsamma.

What Is Keratoconus?

To understand keratoconus, you must know a bit about how your eyes work. Seeing begins when light from an object passes through the cornea, which is the transparent protective front part of your eye. The cornea bends or refracts the light which then passes through the pupil. The pupil opens and closes to control the amount of light entering. The light then passes through the lens, which changes shape, further bending the light and focusing it on the retina, the light sensitive portion at the back of your eye. The retina contains nerve cells that convert the light to electrical impulses which are sent via the optic nerve to the brain where seeing occurs.
Keratoconus is a vision disorder that occurs when the normally round cornea (the front part of the eye) becomes thin and cone shaped. This abnormal shape prevents the light entering the eye from being focused correctly on the retina and causes serious distortion of vision.

Definition
This is a conical protrusion of the central part of the cornea, resulting in an irregular astigmatism. "Kerato" is the word for cornea. Description
Keratoconus is a progressive ectasia (expansion or dilatation) of the cornea, usually bilateral, beginning between ages 10 and 20. The disorder progresses slowly and occurs in three forms: keratoconus posticus circumscriptus, autosomal dominant keratoconus, and autosomal recessive keratoconus. Causes and Risk Factors
Keratoconus occurs in females slightly more than in males. One long-term study indicated a prevalence of 54.5 diagnosed cases of keratoconus per 100,000 population. Keratoconus results from an inherited corneal abnormality, an injury of the eye (e.g., hard contact lens use for many years), diseases of the eye such as retinitis pigmentosa, or retinopathy of prematurity, or other disorders such as Noonan syndrome, Down's syndrome, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, and Leber's congenital amaurosis.

Keratoconus
Eye cross sections showing normal and keratoconus corneas Keratoconus (KC) is a disease of the cornea , the transparent curved "windshield" of the eye. The word keratoconus is formed by the joining of two Greek words - kerato meaning cornea and konos , meaning cone. Keratoconus, or "conical cornea" means that the natural curvature of the normal cornea has changed to a cone-like bulge due to a thinning of the cornea. Scarring of the cornea often occurs. This affects vision, which may be blurred or distorted, or may produce a ripple effect. As the disease progresses the affected eyes become increasingly nearsighted (myopic). In its most advanced form functional vision can be destroyed.
Searching For The Clue To Keratoconus
"It's like Col. Mustard in the library with a wrench," said Discovery Fund scientist Donald Brown, Ph.D. "Much like the ever-popular board game, our efforts in keratoconus research are focused towards understanding what is responsible for this disorder and how it achieves the corneal thinning and distortion." Keratoconus is an eye condition in which the normally round dome-shaped cornea progressively thins causing a cone-like bulge to develop. This results in significant visual impairment. The cornea is the clear window of the eye and is responsible for focusing most of the light coming into the eye. If it is distorted, then the image people see is distorted and out of focus. Although the cornea appears to be one clear membrane, it is actually composed of three distinct layers of tissue, each with its own function.

Center for Keratoconus Launches Drive for Sight Transportation Assistance Program
LOS ANGELES, Jun. 11 (PRNewswire) For many keratoconus patients, the progressive corneal disease eventually renders them legally blind, making it difficult, if not impossible, to drive a car. Now the Center for Keratoconus announces Drive for Sight and new hope for housebound keratoconus patients.
Drive for Sight, a volunteer effort involving staff and members of the Center for Keratoconus, offers 24/7 service including medical appointment drop-off and pick-up, errand services, and transportation to and from work and leisure activities. All services are free and available to keratoconus patients with a doctor's note validating their condition.
"Some people with keratoconus are unable to drive and, therefore, have a difficult time obtaining or holding onto a job, going on basic errands such as grocery shopping, seeking medical care, and enjoying leisure activities," said Robert Gavin, founder of the Center for Keratoconus, an international, nonprofit health organization. "Although there are limited medical transportation programs through various state and federal programs, none are aimed specifically at helping keratoconus patients and none place any emphasis on the need for transportation to and from leisure activities and work. People with keratoconus know the importance of mental and emotional health and easy access to leisure activities and continued employment are crucial to their continued health and stability. With Drive for Sight, we hope to give people back their mobility and independence."
