Awareness About Keratoconus and Its Relation With Eye Rubbing: A Cross-Sectional Study in Riyadh. [PDF]
Health Sci RepABSTRACT Background Keratoconus is a progressive eye disease affecting the cornea, the clear dome‐ shaped structure at the front of the eye. In keratoconus, the cornea thins and bulges outward into a cone shape, leading to loss of visual acuity. The aetiology of keratoconus remains unclear, but it involves both genetic and environmental factors.
