Induction of Cross-links in Corneal Tissue
Experimental Eye Research, 1998The aim of this study was to investigate the possibility of induction of cross-links in corneal tissue in order to increase the stiffness as a basis for a future conservative treatment of keratectasia. Collagenous biomaterials can be stabilized by chemical and physical agents. The epithelium of enucleated porcine eyes was removed. Eight test groups, 10

Corneal Collagen Cross-Linking Complications
Seminars in Ophthalmology, 2017Corneal cross-linking was approved by United States Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of progressive keratoconus in April 2016. As this approach becomes more widely used for the treatment of keratoconus and post-laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) ectasia, the medical community is becoming more familiar with potential complications ...

Corneal Infiltrates After Corneal Collagen Cross-Linking
Journal of Refractive Surgery, 2010Purpose: To present a case of advancing keratoconus treated with corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) with ultraviolet A (UVA) light and riboflavin complicated with sterile infiltrates. Methods: The patient’s cornea was de-epithelialized and CXL was performed with ...

Collagen cross-linking and corneal infections
Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2013This review presents current data regarding the use of collagen cross-linking in the management of corneal infections. Infectious keratitis can lead to blindness without proper antimicrobial therapy. The disease can still progress and lead to corneal melt despite early detection and management.

Corneal collagen cross-linking for keratoconus
Vestnik oftal'mologii, 2015Over 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.

Corneal Collagen Cross-Linking for Corneal Ectasias
2016The aim of this chapter is to review the published literature on corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL). Emphasis has been placed on seminal publications, systemic reviews, meta-analyses and randomized controlled trials. Where such evidence does not exist, large series cohort studies, case-controlled studies and case series with follow-up greater than 12
