Collagen cross-linking with photoactivated riboflavin (PACK-CXL) for the treatment of advanced infectious keratitis with corneal melting.
PURPOSE To investigate the efficacy and safety of corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) with photoactivated riboflavin (photoactivated chromophore for infectious keratitis [PACK]-CXL) in the management of infectious keratitis with corneal melting. DESIGN Prospective clinical trial. PARTICIPANTS Forty eyes from 40 patients with advanced infectious keratitis and coexisting corneal melting. M...
متن کاملCorneal collagen crosslinking in the treatment of infectious keratitis
PURPOSE To report the use of corneal collagen crosslinking in the treatment of infective keratitis not responding to antimicrobial therapy. METHODS Two retrospective case reports of infective keratitis treated with corneal collagen crosslinking. RESULTS In both cases, corneal collagen crosslinking caused a rapid resolution of the infective keratitis, leaving residual stromal scarring. Due t...
متن کاملCorneal Collagen Crosslinking Treatment in a Case with Pneumococcal Keratitis
Bacterial keratitis is a serious ocular infectious disease that can threaten vision. The disease generally progresses rapidly and can lead to corneal scar, stromal abscess formation, perforation, and dissemination to adjacent tissues if not treated properly. Recent studies showed that corneal collagen crosslinking (CCC) using ultraviolet-A/riboflavin is effective in the treatment of bacterial k...
