This places small, curved plastic segments within the layers of the cornea, the clear front surface of the eye, to reshape it and improve its curvature. It's most often used to treat keratoconus, a condition where the cornea thins and bulges into an irregular cone shape, or to help correct vision after certain other corneal changes. The segments can typically be adjusted or removed if needed.
