C3R is not curative and might not even improve your vision completely.

But still C3R is preventive procedure helpful to reduce speed of progression of disease. It strengthens weak cornea like in keratoconus by forming crosslinking of collagen fibers.

Pregnancy can also worsen keratoconus.

Well your power might change after C3R, get your power checked and correction accordingly.
