Histopathological Finding of Cornea after Collagen Cross-Linking Using Riboflavin and Ultraviolet A in Rabbit
Purpose: To evaluate the histopathological changes of the cornea in rabbit corneas after accelerated collagen cross-linking. Methods: Right eyes of 7 adult New Zealand albino rabbits weighing 1.5 to 2.0 kg were studied. Right eyes of all animals were in the treatment group and left eyes were in the control group. The epithelium of all right eyes was removed and was crossed-linked with riboflavi...
متن کاملConductive keratoplasty followed by collagen cross-linking with riboflavin-UV-A in patients with keratoconus.
PURPOSE To evaluate the combined effect of conductive keratoplasty (CK) followed by corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) in 2 patients with keratoconus. METHODS CK spots were applied on the flatter side of the cornea followed by CXL using riboflavin and UV-A light. RESULTS Immediately after CK, a significant corneal topographic improvement was observed. The CK effect regressed 3 months post...

متن کاملUVA-light and riboflavin-mediated corneal collagen cross-linking.
Keratoconus and other corneal conditions associated with progressive stromal thinning including keratectasia after laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) and pellucid marginal degeneration represent therapeutic challenges. Until recently, available therapies including contact lenses, epikeratoplasty, intrastromal corneal rings, and corneal transplantation targeted, in principle, the abno...
متن کاملSafety of corneal collagen cross-linking with UV-A and riboflavin in progressive keratoconus.
PURPOSE To assess the possible damage to ocular tissues during treatment of keratoconus with UV-A-riboflavin corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL). DESIGN Single center, prospective, interventional study. METHODS Fourteen eyes of 14 patients aged 28.2 ± 5.9 (mean ± SD) years with progressive keratoconus were treated with UV-A-riboflavin CXL. Corneal endothelium was assessed with the endothel...
