Clinician and researcher Damien Gatinel, PhD, MD, strongly believes that keratoconus is caused by patients rubbing their eyes and sleeping with their faces against the pillow. Since 2007, he has headed the service for anterior segment and refractive surgeries at the Rothschild Foundation in Paris. He manages patients with refractive surgery, cataract surgery and keratoconus and also regularly performs research on the optical design of IOLs, mathematical modeling of the optical and topographic properties of the cornea, detection of keratoconus, and the effect of laser corrections in refractive surgery. He discussed his cutting-edge theory on the main cause of keratoconus with Primary Care Optometry News
