The Hidden Danger of Rubbing Your Eyes – Keratoconus

Did you know there's a hidden danger to rubbing your eyes? 

While it may provide temporary relief, eye rubbing puts immense pressure on your cornea. It's both a cause and symptom of an eye disease called keratoconus, or KC. This condition causes the cornea to thin and become cone shaped. 

Other KC symptoms include blurry vision, frequent headaches, and difficulty seeing at night. Because KC is progressive, it may get worse over time and lead to vision loss. That's why it's important to get treatment as soon as possible.
