a digitally drawn comic.
PANEL 1: my fursona lounging around. caption: "hey there, gorgeous. did you know that people with autoimmune disorders are likely to develop additional disorders? here's how i got diagnosed with keratoconus!"
PANEL 2: my fursona sitting in a dark room, lit by a candle. caption: i've always needed glasses. in 2020, i realized my close-range vision was declining as well. at the time, i was living in a dark-ass apartment, so i figured it was just eye train.
PANEL 3: a conspicuously traced 2014 hyundai sonata. caption: "in 2022, it got so bad, i gave up wearing my glasses. i was even becoming sensitive to light. my wife drove me to an eye doc at walmart. (i went to art school for four years to trace this car.)"

continued comic.
PANEL 1: my fursona testing different lenses in an eye exam. caption: "as the exam went on, it became clear something was amiss." doctor: "what's clearer, one, or two?" me: "neither." doctor: "okay. two, or three?" me: neither.
PANEL 2: my fursona looking perturbed. doctor: "uhhh... huh. that can't be right."
PANEL 3: interior of a car. my fursona is sobbing on my wife. me: "IT'S CALLED KERATOCONUS AND HE SAID IT'S REALLY RARE AND IF I DON'T GET IT TREATED MY FUCKING EYES ARE GONNA EXPLODE WHAT DO I DOOOOO." caption: "they did not explode."

continued comic
PANEL 1: simple diagrams that represent the caption. caption: "keratoconus is a condition where the immune system slowly erodes the cornea of the eye. picture a balloon with a thick rubber skin. as the rubber erodes, the pressure inside the balloon pushes towards the thin area, creating a distorted shape. that's what's up with my eyes.
PANEL 2: this panel is split into multiple sections. first is a landscape drawing that has been distorted. caption: "some symptoms include blurred or refracted vision..." next is a silhouette of a person standing in different lights. caption: "poor vision in light/dark settings..." next is a drawing of my wife helping my fursona across the sidewalk. caption: "and general light sensitivity. (a bright sidewalk on a sunny day - my nemesis!"
PANEL 3: my fursona points at its eye. caption: "KC affects both eyes, but almost always affects one eye more strongly than the other. my left eye is my 'good' eye!"

continued comic
PANEL 1: my fursona lies in a field of bright color, mumbling "whoa." caption: KC is treated by corneal crosslinking, a procedure that thickens the cornea. the details make some people squeamish, so i won't describe it... but i will say, staring into UV light for an hour looks pretty cool."
PANEL 2: my fursona lies in bed in a dark room, playing on a nintendo switch. caption: "i am extremely privileged and fortunate to have had both my eyes treated! both recoveries were painful, but brief. (i spent a lot of 2022 playing visual novels in the dark.) crosslinking does not improve vision, but my eyes have been stable ever since."
PANEL 3: my fursona bowing. caption: "keratoconus has no cure. my vision will always be affected, and i can't afford the special contacts that would correct it. still - i got lucky. my KC was caught and treated early. here's hoping the worst of it is behind me! thanks for listening!"

made with @nex3's grid generator

made another comic about my other big diagnosis. KC sucks but i'm grateful for the care i got :]
