Corneal Crosslinking in Progressive Keratoconus: Comparison of Dextran-Based and Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose-Based Riboflavin Solutions Differences in demarcation line depth and 1 yaear outcomes
Abstract:Keratoconus is a progressive ectatic disorder characterised by irregular myopic astigmatism and loss of visual acuity due to corneal thinning. Corneal collagen crosslinking is the treatment recognised to stop the progression of keratoconus. Our study evaluates and compares visibility and depth of the stromal demarcation line after corneal collagen crosslinking using anterior segment optical coherence tomography between two groups:crosslinking with dextran-based and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose-based riboflav… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
