Accelerated Corneal Collagen Crosslinking for Keratoconus and Ectasia Using Pulse or Continuous UV-A Light

Category Primary study
Registry of Trialsclinicaltrials.gov
Year 2021
Corneal collagen crosslinking has been demonstrated as an effective method of reducing progression of both keratoconus and post-refractive corneal ectasia, as well as decreasing the steepness of the cornea in these pathologies. Performing an accelerated CXL procedure with pulsed UVA light may increase the oxygenation of the cornea, which may improve the crosslinking efficacy.
