Hello
Welcome to health care magic.
I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that you are having keratoconus.
The treatment to prevent progression is by corneal collagen crosslinking or by intracorneal ring segments. Advanced stages may require keratoplasty.
Hence I advice you to consult your ophthalmologist for treatment according to the symptoms and severity of the disease.
Hope this information is helpful to you.
Thank you
With regards
