C3R Surgery In Ambala​

Corneal collagen cross-linking (CCL) is a novel treatment for corneal scarring and other Causes of keratoconus. CCL is a surgical procedure that uses riboflavin to cross-link the corneal collagen fibers. This results in a thicker and more resilient surface layer that can help reduce the severity of keratoconus and other corneal problems.

There are several types of CCL procedures available, depending on the severity of the problem. In general, CCL procedures are done as outpatient procedures with minimal discomfort. The main risks associated with CCL include minor surgery-related complications and a small chance of developing post-operative corneal erosion or cataracts.

If you are interested in learning more about CCL treatments, please contact our office in Ambala for more information. We would be happy to answer any questions you may have about this innovative treatment approach.

Procedure of C3R Eye Surgery

C3r surgery

Corneal collagen crosslinking (CCL) is a common type of eye surgery that uses riboflavin (vitamin B2) to crosslink the corneal collagen fibers. CCL is used to help thin and flatten the cornea, and improve overall vision.

During CCL, an eyedropper is used to apply a small amount of riboflavin to the top of the cornea. The riboflavin then reacts with the corneal protein to form crosslinks. Over time, these crosslinks form a tougher structure that can help protect the cornea from further damage.

The procedure usually takes around 30 minutes and you can expect some discomfort during and after the surgery. However, most patients report excellent vision after CCL.
