Procedure of C3R Eye Surgery

C3r surgery

Corneal collagen crosslinking is a procedure that uses riboflavin to link the corneal collagen fibers together. This helps restore the structure and function of the cornea. In general, the procedure takes approximately 90 minutes and can be performed as an outpatient surgery.

After an examination of your eyes, the surgeon will inject a numbing solution into your eye. This will help you feel less pain during the surgery. Next, the surgeon will make a small incision in your eye and insert a thin needle into the center of your cornea. The needle is then used to deposit riboflavin onto the cornea in a controlled manner.

The riboflavin will react with the proteins in the cornea to create crosslinks. These crosslinks will bond together the collagen fibers in the cornea, restoring its structure and function. After cross-linking, the surgeon will remove the needle from your eye and close up the incision.
