Upconversion Nanoparticles Embedded Photonic Contact Lens for Transepithelial Corneal Crosslinking Using Hyaluronate – Riboflavin Conjugate

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 22, 16 March 2026.
A minimally invasive, transepithelial corneal cross‐linking (TE‐CXL) approach is presented using upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs)‐loaded contact lenses (UCLs), after topical delivery of hyaluronate–riboflavin conjugates. The NIR‐to‐UV/blue light conversion by UCNPs in a UCL can activate riboflavin for TE‐CXL, resulting in the biomechanical strength ...

Immediate Postoperative Decentration of a Biologic Corneal Inlay Managed With Tomography‐Guided Repositioning: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
Immediate postoperative Pentacam corneal tomography revealing inferior‐temporal decentration of the biologic corneal inlay on the axial curvature map. ABSTRACT Biologic corneal inlays can rarely present with immediate postoperative decentration, which can be subtle and difficult to detect clinically. Real‐time tomography allows precise early diagnosis,

Progression and topographic subtypes of Terrien marginal degeneration

Acta Ophthalmologica, Volume 104, Issue 1, Page 33-43, February 2026.
Abstract Purpose To report long‐term outcomes and to search for immunological and genetic risk factors in Terrien marginal degeneration (TMD). Methods Retrospective, in part prospective, hospital‐based longitudinal follow‐up study of 32 eyes of 16 Finnish patients from 2012 to 2023. Median follow‐up was 7.3 years (range, 0.3–15.2).
