corneal cross-linking for pseudophakic bullous keratopathy
purpose: to evaluate the efficacy of riboflavin administration and ultraviolet a (uva) cross-linking on advanced symptomatic bullous keratopathy (bk). methods: 10 patients with symptomatic pseudophakic bullous keratopathy (pbk) were included. slit-lamp examination, visual acuity, foreign body sensation (fbs) and corneal thickness as measured by pentacam, were performed before corneal cross-link...
متن کاملCorneal cross linking for keratoconus.
Riboflavin-induced ultraviolet light (UV) cross linking has received a significant amount of attention in recent years. It is currently approved in Europe as a treatment for keratoconus and is also being used for other corneal disorders. The goal of this paper is to review in detail seminal papers and studies that have been done to support cross linking as a safe and effective treatment for pat...
متن کاملCorneal cross-linking.
Since its inception in the late 1990s, corneal cross-linking has grown from an interesting concept to a primary treatment for corneal ectatic disease worldwide. Using a combination of ultraviolet-A light and a chromophore (vitamin B2, riboflavin), the cornea can be stiffened, usually with a single application, and progressive thinning diseases such as keratoconus arrested. Despite being in clin...
متن کاملComparison of prophylactic higher fluence corneal cross-linking to control, in myopic LASIK, one year results
PURPOSE To compare 1-year results: safety, efficacy, refractive and keratometric stability, of femtosecond myopic laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) with and without concurrent prophylactic high-fluence cross-linking (CXL) (LASIK-CXL). METHODS We studied a total of 155 consecutive eyes planned for LASIK myopic correction. Group A represented 73 eyes that were treated additionally w...
متن کاملHigh fluence iontophoretic corneal collagen cross-linking: in vivo OCT imaging of riboflavin penetration.
To the Editor: We read with interest the excellent article by Malhotra et al.1 regarding in vivo estimation of ribofl avin penetration using anterior segment optical coherence tomography (OCT). The article evaluates the effect of complete versus grid-like epithelial removal on ribofl avin penetration during collagen cross-linking (CXL) in vivo using hand-held OCT. Twenty eyes of 20 patients wer...
