Did you know that eye rubbing can lead to Keratoconus? 🤔 According to Dr. Babakhan at Amplify Eyecare, recent research shows that eye rubbing is a major factor in causing Keratoconus, especially in kids.

🔥 The dangers of eye rubbing:
1️⃣ When kids (or anyone) rub their eyes constantly, it changes the structure of the collagen tissue in the cornea, causing the cornea to take on a cone-like shape.
2️⃣ This can lead to blurred vision, light sensitivity, and distortions over time.
3️⃣ Keratoconus usually starts during puberty, but can be misdiagnosed and not detected until later in life.

💡 Fun Fact: Keratoconus is a leading cause of corneal transplantation worldwide!
