The NKCF is an educational program of The Gavin Herbert Eye Institute, UC Irvine. We serve individuals diagnosed with keratoconus and their families.

The NKCF was created to raise awareness of keratoconus, provide information and support to those with this eye condition and to support research to find the cause of keratoconus, identify treatment options and eventual cure for keratoconus. Our mission is to advance the awareness and treatment of keratoconus through education and information, research, and support.
