Abstract: Corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) is a therapeutic procedure that helps in increasing the corneal stiffness in the keratoconus eyes. It increases the collagen cross linking within the extracellular matrix (ECM). Ultraviolet-A (370 nm) irradiation of the cornea after saturation with the photosensitizer riboflavin is used. A minimum deepithelializ... Show More
