Annotation
Keratoconus is a progressive, degenerative disorder of the cornea characterized
by thinning and protrusion, leading to irregular astigmatism and visual impairment.
Early detection is crucial in halting or slowing disease progression through timely
intervention, such as corneal cross-linking. This article reviews the methods of
screening for keratoconus in its early stages, emphasizing the importance of advanced
imaging techniques and clinical markers for early diagnosis. Understanding the risk
factors and implementing appropriate screening in susceptible populations can improve
clinical outcomes and reduce the burden of advanced keratoconus.
