Stops Progression of Keratoconus: Prevents cornea from thinning further and worsening vision.
Corneal Collagen Cross-Linking with Riboflavin (C3R) is a surgical procedure used to treat keratoconus, a condition where the cornea weakens and thins, causing it to bulge outward. This weakens vision and can progress to severe visual disability. C3R strengthens the cornea by applying riboflavin eye drops and activating them with ultraviolet light, halting disease progression.
Stops Progression of Keratoconus: Prevents cornea from thinning further and worsening vision.
Strengthens the Cornea Naturally: Increases collagen bonds within the cornea for stability.
Avoids Corneal Transplant: Many patients can avoid invasive transplant surgery if treated early.
Safe and Minimally Invasive: Involves eye drops and UV light, making it gentle yet effective.
