Our Philosophy

'Primum non nocere' - First, do no harm.

We should always encourage the softer approach first for keratoconic eyes.

Christopher Kerr FCOptom FAAO FBCLA, Past President of the British Contact Lens Association ("BCLA"), lectured on this at the Royal Society of Medicine, London. You can read the lecture here

KeraSoft^® lenses offer a real alternative to surgery and are used world-wide by Ophthalmologists as an alternative to, or to delay the requirement for, corneal transplants.
