Keratoconus (KC) is a multifactorial disease with numerous associated systemic disorders. Hormonal dysfunction is commonly identified as a risk factor in the progression of KC. However, KC is very rarely known to be associated with congenital uterine anomalies. We present a case report of a 34-year-old female diagnosed with bilateral KC with hypoplastic uterus and septate vagina, albeit with normal sex hormonal parameters. Recognizing the existence of this rare association will encourage the diagnosis of such cases in futurity. Also, it is mandatory to do karyotyping in these cases to rule out the risk of developing gonadoblastoma.
