摘要: ABSTRACTPurpose: To investigate the association between keratoconus (KC) and allergic diseases.Methods: In a prospective age- sex-matched case–-control study clinical data of 885 KC patients 1526 controls were evaluated regarding presence various diseases. Severity ophthalmic parameters compared with without diseases.Results: The prevalence diseases was significantly higher in patients. vernal keratoconjunctivitis (VKC) or conjunctivitis (AC) had thinner steeper corneas comparison non-allergic Only VKC AC associated severity.Conclusions: Patients at increased risk KC. They more severe should be closely followed up intensively treated.
