Article Synopsis
- The study investigated the long-term effects of combining topography-guided photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) and accelerated corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) for treating mild-to-moderate keratoconus using a specific refractive system.
- Conducted at a tertiary eye care hospital in South India, the study involved 30 patients whose visual acuity and keratometry measurements were evaluated at multiple time points post-surgery.
- Results showed significant improvements in uncorrected and corrected distance visual acuity, as well as decreased keratometry values over 24 months, suggesting this combined procedure could be an effective treatment for early keratoconus, though further research is needed to solidify these
