Cogan’s Contact Network

The mission of Cogan’s Contact Network is to educate patients about this rare syndrome, provide first experiences with coping and understanding the illness, and give patients the tools they need to communicate with physicians. Cogan’s Contact Network wants «coganites» to know that they will be fine with this illness and that they are not alone. Cogan’s syndrome is a rare disease that is characterized by hearing impairment; dysfunction of that portion of the ear that helps to regulate balance; abnormal ringing sensations (tinnitus); and possible eye problems (e.g., interstitial keratitis).
