Corneal Cross-Linking: The Evolution of Treatment for Corneal Diseases. [PDF]
Front Pharmacol, 2021 Corneal cross-linking (CXL) using riboflavin and ultraviolet A (UVA) light has become a useful treatment option for not only corneal ectasias, such as keratoconus, but also a number of other corneal diseases. Riboflavin is a photoactivated chromophore that plays an integral role in facilitating collagen crosslinking.
