Aloha Laser Vision First in Hawaii to Offer New Keratoconus Treatment
Honolulu Eye Doctors at Aloha Laser Vision are the first in Hawaii to offer the new Epioxa® treatment for Keratoconus.
Honolulu, HI, November 4, 2026 — Aloha Laser Vision, a practice of Honolulu Eye Doctors, has announced it is the first facility in Hawaii to provide Epioxa® treatment for keratoconus. This marks a significant development for patients in the state seeking advanced options for the progressive eye condition.
Keratoconus is a condition where the normally round cornea, the clear front part of the eye, thins and begins to bulge outward into a cone shape. This can cause significant visual disturbances, including blurred vision and light sensitivity. Historically, treatment options have been limited, often progressing to corneal transplants in severe cases.
The introduction of Epioxa® treatment at Aloha Laser Vision offers a new therapeutic approach for managing keratoconus. The specifics of how Epioxa® works or its clinical outcomes were not detailed in the provided information. The provider stated that it is a new treatment available to patients in Hawaii.
Aloha Laser Vision, operating under the umbrella of Honolulu Eye Doctors, aims to bring cutting-edge ophthalmic technologies and treatments to the Hawaiian Islands. By being the first to offer Epioxa®, the practice is positioning itself as a leader in specialized eye care within the region.
Further details regarding the treatment protocol, patient eligibility, and availability were not immediately available. Information about the development or manufacturer of Epioxa® was also not provided. Aloha Laser Vision’s initiative to introduce this treatment is expected to benefit individuals in Hawaii who have been diagnosed with keratoconus.
