C3R Surgery In Gulbarga
CCL is a treatment option for patients with keratoconus, a progressive thinning of the cornea caused by an imbalance in the production of epithelial and stromal cells. Keratoconus can progress to a point where vision is impaired.
In patients with keratoconus, riboflavin may play an important role in regulating collagen production. Collagen is a type of protein that provides stiffness and strength to the cornea. Crosslinking collagen fibers can reduce the amount of distortion in the cornea and improve its ability to focus light.
If you are interested in learning more about CCL or if you are considering this treatment as an option for your eyes, please contact our office in Gulbarga. We would be happy to discuss your options with you and answer any questions that you may have.
Procedure of C3R Eye Surgery
In a typical corneal collagen crosslinking procedure, the patient is anesthetized with general anesthesia and the eyelids are lowered over the eyes. A small amount of riboflavin is instilled into the lower part of the eye to help catalyze the crosslinking process.
The riboflavin is allowed to work for about 10 minutes, and then the eyelids are carefully elevated to allow the cornea to dry out. A small bandage is placed over the cornea and secured in place with medical adhesive.
In order to achieve the best possible results, patients are advised to refrain from any activities that require close attention to their eyes for at least 2 weeks following surgery.
