Accelerated cross-linking protocol may be less effective for topographic flattening
Despite a shorter irradiation time and a higher UV dose, the accelerated corneal cross-linking protocol is less effective for topographic flattening when compared with the standard Dresden protocol for keratoconus, a study found.Researchers compared the results of the accelerated cross-linking protocol and the conventional Dresden protocol in 28 eyes with primary keratoconus. Visual acuity, keratometric values and topographic parameters were evaluated.
