One‐Year Results of Accelerated Transepithelial Corneal Cross‐Linking for Progressive Keratoconus: A Prospective Interventional Study

Eye &ENT Research, Volume 3, Issue 3, Page 168-174, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Keratoconus is a progressive corneal ectatic disorder. Accelerated transepithelial corneal cross‐linking (ATE‐CXL) aims to halt progression while preserving the epithelium, but evidence on its 12‐month efficacy requires further evaluation.
