Collagen Cross-Links Reduce Corneal Permeability
Investigative Opthalmology & Visual Science, 2009 To investigate the relationship between corneal permeability and nonenzymatic cross-link density.Corneas were dissected from 90 cadaveric porcine eyes. Samples were incubated for 24 hours with control solution or methylglyoxal at concentrations of 0.01%, 0.10%, and 1.00%.
