C3R Surgery In Kanpur​

Corneal collagen crosslinking with riboflavin surgery is a unique and highly effective treatment for dry eye syndrome. Crosslinking uses ultraviolet (UV) light to break down the corneal collagen, which can cause the surface of the eye to become drier and more sensitive to irritation. In addition, riboflavin has been shown to help improve overall vision by reducing the severity and number of episodes of dry eye syndrome.

If you are suffering from dry eye syndrome, contact our office in Kanpur today for a consultation. We can discuss your individualized treatment plan and determine if crosslinking is right for you.

Procedure of C3R Eye Surgery

C3r surgery

Corneal collagen crosslinking is a common procedure used to treat various eye conditions. The procedure uses a light and a chemical called riboflavin to crosslink the cornea’s collagen fibers. This causes the cornea to become more resistant to damage and can improve the vision of people with certain eye conditions.

The first step in the procedure is to numbing the area around the eye using an eye drop. A small incision is then made and the riboflavin solution is applied. The light is then directed onto the cornea and it takes about 30 minutes for the crosslinking to take place. The area around the eye may feel warm and there may be some discomfort during the procedure. After the crosslinking has taken place, the incision is closed with stitches or a bandage.
