Treating slight Keratoconus With Intacs? - keratoconus is it considered a disability
Years ago, when I'm doing laser surgery vision (the numbers around -4) are correct, and was with mild keratoconus, which moves and can not wear soft contact lenses are diagnosed, but doctors could not guarantee that an operation does not lead to long-term Damage to this problem.
I heard from Intacs treatment, and I know what the risks are, how they address the audience, and if possible - what are the "usual" costs. If you such information, or have at least some would be useful.

Like any refractive surgery, there are risks and possible complications. Clinical trials in the U.S. showed that infection is a risk with surgery, occurred in 0.2% Intacs procedure. This can be with drugs and without side effects usually lead to be treated.
Other rare complications include: excessive reduction of the central corneal sensation, difficulty with night vision equipment, undercorrection, induced astigmatism, blurry vision, double vision, blood vessels in the cornea, halos, glare, distance, wavering, and a reduction of 2 or more lines of best corrected vision. If results are unsatisfactory procedure, Intacs can be removed or replaced. Ask your doctor will discuss the risks and potential benefits in detail with you.
A good alternative is LASIK surgery, but both have great advantages.
Good luck!
