Keratoglobus (from Greek: kerato- horn cornea; and globus round) is a degenerative non-inflammatory disorder of the eye in which structural changes within the cornea cause it to become extremely thin and change to a more globular shape than its normal gradual curve. It causes corneal thinning primarily at the margins resulting in a spherical slightly enlarged eye.It is sometimes equated with megalocornea.
