Coincidental occurrence of severe hydrops after corneal collagen cross-linking
Indian Journal of Ophthalmology. Case Reports, 2023 This case report describes a case of acute corneal hydrops (ACH) within 4 days following collagen cross-linking that was done to arrest the progression of keratoconus in a 15-year-old girl. She developed pain, redness, and watering in the left eye within

Corneal Collagen Cross-Linking Outcomes: Review [PDF]
The Open Ophthalmology Journal, 2011 Keratoconus is a condition characterized by biomechanical instability of the cornea, presenting in a progressive, asymmetric and bilateral way. Corneal collagen cross-linking with riboflavin and UVA (CXL) is a new technique of corneal tissue strengthening that combines the use of riboflavin as a photo sensitizer and UVA irradiation.

Combined corneal CXL and photorefractive keratectomy for treatment of keratoconus: a review [PDF]
International Journal of Ophthalmology, 2019 Keratoconus and iatrogenic keratectasia are the corneal ectatic disorders occurring due to biomechanical weakening of the cornea resulting in distorted images, myopia, and irregular astigmatism. Corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) is performed to arrest

Shield ulcer following corneal collagen cross-linking
Indian Journal of Ophthalmology. Case Reports, 2022 A 10-year-old boy presented with right-eye (RE) hyperemia, tearing, photophobia, and diminution of vision. There was a history of right-eye corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) done 1 month back for keratoconus.

Corneal Collagen Cross-linking
Asia-Pacific Journal of Ophthalmology, 2015 Corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) has been shown to slow down or stop the progression of keratoconus. In addition, CXL has been applied in cases of corneal ectasia. Recent reports of the use of CXL in cases of infectious keratitis have generated further interest in this treatment modality.

Corneal collagen cross-linking for treating keratoconus [PDF]
Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2015 Keratoconus is a condition of the eye that affects approximately 1 in 2000 people. The disease leads to a gradual increase in corneal curvature and decrease in visual acuity with consequent impact on quality of life. Collagen cross-linking (CXL) with ultraviolet A (UVA) light and riboflavin (vitamin B2) is a relatively new treatment that has been ...

Corneal collagen cross-linking for keratoconus
Vestnik oftal'mologii, 2015 Over the last decade, corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) has become a conventional treatment method for progressive keratoconus. Laboratory studies have shown that CXL increases the diameter of collagen fibers and also the number of intra- and interfibrillar cross-links, thus, increasing biomechanical strength of the irradiated cornea.
