C3R Surgery In Aurangabad​

Corneal collagen crosslinking (CCL) is a new and promising technique for the treatment of corneal dystrophy. The process involves the use of riboflavin (vitamin B2) to react with corneal collagen and add crosslinks between the polypeptides. 

This results in a stronger and more stable cornea. CCL has been shown to be effective in the treatment of both progressive and progressive severe dystrophies, including keratoconus and Stargardt disease.

Procedure of C3R Eye Surgery

C3r surgery

Corneal collagen crosslinking is a common procedure used to improve the appearance of the eyes. This procedure uses riboflavin (a vitamin) as an agent to crosslink the cornea’s collagen fibers. Collagen crosslinking can improve the appearance of the eyes by reducing the appearance of wrinkles, age spots, and crow’s feet.

The procedure is performed by injecting riboflavin into the center of the cornea using a needle. The riboflavin then travels through the eye and binds to the corneal collagen. This process results in a change in color that can be seen with a microscope. Over time, the color will fade and the cornea will become more elastic. The procedure is usually done as an outpatient procedure, and most people are able to return to their normal activities within a few days.
