EASA class 1 keratoconus

Hi all,

I have an eye condition called keratoconus which affects the shape of the cornea. Have had this condition for about 10 years now in which I have had the cross linking procedure done which has halted the progression. Currently wearing hard rgp contact lenses to correct the vision to 6/6.

My question is, does anyone know of anyone who has this condition who holds a EASA class 1 medical.

Im thinking if I am able to pass the class 1 medical will it be worth all the money of commercial flight training to one day get told I will need to stop flying due to loosing my medical.

Currently have a PPL and will be booking my class 1 in next couple of months.

Would appreciate your feedback and advice on this matter.

Thanks again.
