Efficacy of iontophoresis-assisted epithelium-on corneal cross-linking for keratoconus [PDF]
Corneal cross-linking (CXL) is a noninvasive therapeutic procedure for keratoconus that is aimed at improving corneal biomechanical properties by induction of covalent cross-links between stromal proteins.

Collagen Crosslinking for Keratoconus: Cellular Signaling Mechanisms
Collagen crosslinking (CXL) is a widely used treatment to halt the progression of keratoconus (KC). Unfortunately, a significant number of patients with progressive KC will not qualify for CXL, including those with corneas thinner than 400 µm.

PACK-CXL: Defining CXL for Infectious Keratitis
THE CONCEPT OF CXL In 1998, the proof-of-principle for corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) was born from such a “simple” concept. Combining ultraviolet-A light and a chromophore (vitamin B2, riboflavin), the cornea could be stiffened within a mere half hour and progressive thinning diseases such as keratoconus could be halted.1,2 Although still ...

Complications of corneal collagen cross-linking
Corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) is an effective treatment for arresting progression in patients with keratoconus. CXL was approved by United States Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of progressive keratoconus in 2016. It is a relatively

Nonlinear optical crosslinking (NLO CXL) for correcting refractive errors. [PDF]
Ultraviolet A (UVA) light-based photoactivation of riboflavin (Rf) to induce corneal crosslinking (CXL) and mechanical stiffening is now a well-known treatment for corneal ectasia and Keratoconus that is being used in a topographically guided ...

Effect of corneal cross-linking surgery on corneal densitometry in patients with keratoconus
Objective To obtain and analyze the effect of corneal collagen crosslinking (CXL) on corneal densitometry (CD) in patients with keratoconus (KC) by using the Pentacam 3D anterior segment analysis system.
