Novel cross-linking application for low myopia shows promise
Photorefractive intrastromal cross-linking, or PiXL, may be a promising option for patients with low-grade myopia, according to one surgeon.“It fills in the gap between emmetropia and the amount of refractive error that we would start treating with laser or other more invasive procedures. There are many low myopes who would like to get rid of spectacles but are not considered good candidates for LASIK,” Anders Behndig, MD, PhD, told Ocular Surgery News.
