C3R Surgery In Karimnagar​

Corneal collagen cross-linking with riboflavin is a new technique that has been showing great potential for treating various corneal diseases. Collagen cross-linking agents such as riboflavin help to break down the proteins that make up the cornea, which in turn leads to a decrease in the number of inflammatory cells and improved vision.

One of the main benefits of this procedure is that it does not require any prior surgical experience or special equipment. In fact, it can be performed on an outpatient basis using common eyeglasses and a mild eye drop. Another advantage of this Technique is that it is non-invasive and does not require any specific post-operative care.

If you are interested in learning more about this procedure or if you are looking for a doctor who can offer you this option, please do not hesitate to contact Mantracare Karimnagar. We would be happy to help you find the right doctor and answer any questions you may have.

Procedure of C3R Eye Surgery

C3r surgery

Crosslinking increases the stability and strength of the cornea, which can help protect against further damage from various causes, such as eye trauma or infection.

The crosslinking procedure is typically done in two stages. In the first stage, riboflavin is injected into the center of the cornea. This causes the molecule to form pairs of molecules, or crosslinks, between its atoms. The second stage involves applying a heat or laser treatment to these crosslinks, which helps them to form a stronger bond and improve the overall stability of the cornea.

The benefits of crosslinking your cornea include increased stability and strength of the cornea, improved vision, reduced risk of macular degeneration, and reduced risk of cataracts.
