Resumo: dc.description.abstractKeratoconus is a non-inflammatory eye disease caused by corneal deformation. In the early stages of the disease, keratoconus is a disease that is difficult to identify due to the absence of symptoms. Objective: This study aimed to highlight the main diagnostic methods of keratoconus disease, as well as its definition and clinical manifestations. Method: The development of this research was based on a study characterized as descriptive, considering that it was sustained from a theoretical basis. Therefore, a qualitative approach was used, as authors of books, scientific articles and electronic publications were taken as a source of research. That said, the nature of the present study is considered as an integrative literature review. Results: it was observed that in terms of visual rehabilitation, procedures that interfere with the progression of keratoconus, such as special contact lenses, Cross linking and implantation of the intrastromal ring, changed the previous scenario, delaying the progression of the disease and, in some cases, postpone and even avoid corneal transplantation. Conclusion: through the study, it was possible to perceive that the availability of new treatments for keratoconus also contributed to the importance of early diagnosis.pt_BR
