New strategy of adapted fluence allows for safe cross-linking in thin keratoconus corneas

A nomogram that customizes UVA fluence allows for safe cross-linking of thin keratoconus corneas. This new method developed by Farhad Hafezi, MD, PhD, and Sabine Kling, PhD, a postdoctoral physicist in his research group, has the potential to make cross-linking accessible to all patients because corneal thickness would no longer be a limitation.“It simplifies the old method a lot and makes the future so much easier because you don’t have to worry about which solution you use and how thick the cornea is. You just adapt UVA intensity to the (Read more...)
