Combining CAIRS and Corneal Cross-Linking for Keratoconus Treatment

Combining CAIRS and Corneal Cross-Linking for Keratoconus Treatment The combination of Corneal Allogenic Intrastromal Ring Segments (CAIRS) and corneal crosslinking (CXL) represents a transformative approach in the treatment of keratoconus. When used together, CAIRS reshapes the cornea for better optical quality, while CXL stabilizes the underlying disease. This combination can provide both functional and structural […]

Keratoconus and Corneal Cross-Linking

Keratoconus and Corneal Cross-Linking Keratoconus is a corneal disorder characterized by progressive thinning and bulging of the cornea, the transparent front part of the eye. This structural change leads to a conical shape, distorting vision and causing irregular astigmatism. Individuals with keratoconus often experience blurred or distorted vision, increased sensitivity to light and frequent changes […]
