Standard versus accelerated riboflavin–ultraviolet corneal collagen crosslinking: Resistance against enzymatic digestion
PURPOSE To examine the effect of standard and accelerated corneal collagen crosslinking (CXL) on corneal enzymatic resistance. SETTING School of Optometry and Vision Sciences, Cardiff University, Cardiff, United Kingdom. DESIGN Experimental study. METHODS Sixty-six enucleated porcine eyes (with corneal epithelium removed) were assigned to 6 groups. Group 1 remained untreated, group 2 rece...
متن کاملIntraoperative corneal thickness change and clinical outcomes after corneal collagen crosslinking: Standard crosslinking versus hypotonic riboflavin.
PURPOSE To determine intraoperative changes in corneal thickness and outcomes of corneal collagen crosslinking (CXL) using 2 intraoperative regimens: riboflavin-dextran or hypotonic riboflavin. SETTING Cornea and refractive surgery practice, Teaneck, New Jersey, USA. DESIGN Prospective randomized case series. METHODS Eyes with keratoconus or corneal ectasia were treated. All eyes received...
متن کاملStandard corneal collagen crosslinking versus transepithelial iontophoresis‐assisted corneal crosslinking, 24 months follow‐up: randomized control trial
PURPOSE To compare the results of standard corneal crosslinking (CXL) and transepithelial iontophoresis-assisted CXL after 24 months follow-up. MATERIAL AND METHODS Corneal crosslinking (CXL) was performed in a series of 149 eyes of 119 patients with keratoconus I-II of Amsler classification. Depending on the CXL method, patients were divided into two groups: (1) 73 eyes with standard CXL and...
متن کاملAccelerated Corneal Collagen Crosslinking for the treatment of Keratoconus
Corneal Collagen Crosslinking (CXL) is a method that has been established as the treatment of choice for keratoconus. Corneal strengthening is achieved with the use of riboflavin (vitamin B2) in combination with ultraviolet radiation UV-A. According to clinical trials conducted in the last years and based on the latest publications, this technique has advanced. The time needed for the procedure...
