Demographic details, corrected distance visual acuity, refraction, corneal topography, pachymetry, and treatment received were all documented.\n\nResults: There were 458 new keratoconus patients (257 males, 201 females) comprising a total of 893 eyes with a mean age of 20 years ± 5.6 (standard deviation) (range 6-46 years). On their first visit, 35% of eyes had spectacle-corrected distance visual acuity"
