iLink FDA-approved cross-linking is the only treatment option proven safe and effective in slowing or halting the progression of keratoconus to help preserve patients’ vision.
It is estimated that an astounding 45 million people in the United States (or about 14% of the population) wear contact lenses. However, the vast majority of users don’t use their lenses properly. The outcomes can be harmful to both your lenses and your overall eye health, potentially leading to a serious eye infection, among other risks.
Whether you wear them to improve your vision or have to be fitted for a new pair after undergoing iLink FDA-approved cross-linking for progressive keratoconus, contact lenses can play a key role in your keratoconus journey. However, while contact lenses are an effective way to improve vision, more than 99% of users have reported at least one risky eye care behavior that can lead to eye infections.
