Transepithelial corneal collagen crosslinking for keratoconus: six-month results.
PURPOSE To evaluate the safety and efficacy of corneal collagen crosslinking (CXL) using a transepithelial technique to treat keratoconus. SETTING Cornea and refractive surgery subspecialty practice. DESIGN Prospective clinical trial. METHODS Transepithelial CXL was performed in eyes with keratoconus using proparacaine with benzalkonium chloride (BAK) 0.01% to facilitate riboflavin absorp...
متن کاملTransepithelial crosslinking retreatment of progressive corneal ectasia unresponsive to classic crosslinking.
A 41-year-old man presented 10 years after uneventful laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) with symptomatic post-LASIK ectasia. He had treatment with the classic Dresden epithelium-off technique and presented 4 years later with progression of the ectasia. He was subsequently retreated with conductive keratoplasty (CK) followed by a new proprietary epithelium-on corneal collagen crosslinking (CX...
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 کاملTransepithelial corneal crosslinking in treatment of progressive keratoconus: 12 months’ clinical results
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of transepithelial corneal collagen cross linking (TE-CXL) with modified riboflavin and accelerated UVA irradiance in thin corneas with pachymetry less than 400 microns at thinnest point, untreatable by epithelium off corneal collagen cross linking (CXL) in adult Pakistani population with progressive keratoconus. METH...
متن کاملIontophoresis Transcorneal Delivery Technique for Transepithelial Corneal Collagen Crosslinking With Riboflavin in a Rabbit Model.
PURPOSE We compared an iontophoresis riboflavin delivery technique for transepithelial corneal collagen crosslinking (I-CXL) with a conventional CXL (C-CXL). METHODS We designed three experimental sets using 152 New Zealand rabbits to study riboflavin application by iontophoresis using charged riboflavin solution (Ricrolin+) with a 1-mA current for 5 minutes. The first set was to compare ribo...
