Corneal crosslinking with riboflavin and ultraviolet A. I. Principles.
Changes in the biomechanical properties of the human cornea play an important role in the pathogenesis of corneal ectatic diseases. Biomechanical investigation shows significant differences between human ectatic corneas and normal corneas, including decreased stiffness and reduction of collagen crosslinks in the ectatic cornea. Induction of crosslinks is a well-established procedure in polymer ...
متن کاملAlternative ultraviolet A lamp for corneal collagen crosslinking
In this paper, we describe an original, affordable, and available device for performing collagen crosslinking. This is carried out in a safe and reproducible way by means of a simple modification to an affordable ultraviolet A lamp and by preparing riboflavin 0.1% solution inhouse.

متن کاملEffect of complete epithelial debridement before riboflavin-ultraviolet-A corneal collagen crosslinking therapy.
PURPOSE To evaluate the importance of complete epithelial removal before riboflavin-ultraviolet-A (UVA) corneal collagen crosslinking therapy. SETTING School of Optometry and Vision Sciences, Cardiff University, Wales, United Kingdom. METHODS Riboflavin eyedrops were applied at 5-minute intervals for 35 minutes to the anterior corneal surface of 36 porcine eyes (12 with no epithelial trauma...
متن کاملCorneal crosslinking with riboflavin and ultraviolet A. Part II. Clinical indications and results.
Changes in the biomechanical properties of the human cornea play an important role in the pathogenesis of corneal ectatic diseases. A variety of conditions in primary acquired (keratoconus and pellucid marginal degeneration) or secondary induced (iatrogenic keratectasia after excimer refractive laser surgery) corneal ectatic disorders lead to reduced biomechanical resistance. Corneal collagen c...
