1st get your refraction done if there is satisfactory improvement.then repeat refraction  frequently and if your operations increases then you may need c3r done .Don't worry  have a second opinion with a cornea specialist.

Hello A.. You will not go blind with Keratoconus.... It can be treated B.  First step is to determine if it is progressing or not... If yes then collagen cross linking is done followed by contact lens fitting Having said that it is provisional diagnosis Kindly share your case file and test reports so that I may guide you better Regards
