Leben in Dunkelheit - Akanthamöben-Keratitis

Jessica Kogel, born on May 10, 1990, in Leipzig, fell ill with Acanthamoeba keratitis in 2011, a rare corneal disease that primarily affects contact lens wearers. Condemned to a life in darkness and daily pain with no immediate prospect of healing, she decided not to give up. With the launch of her blog on December 2, 2011, she laid the foundation for the first publicly accessible information. This book is aimed particularly at all those affected by this disease, as well as their relatives and doctors. It exemplifies a course of the illness, offers tips and information, and provides insight into Jessica's thoughts as she suffered from this condition.
