C3R Surgery In Nadiad​

Corneal collagen cross-linking is a new and emerging treatment option for patients with keratoconus. This procedure uses riboflavin to cross-link the corneal collagen fibers, which results in a tighter, more obedient cornea. Cross-linking has been found to be effective in shrinking the size of the keratoconus cone and improving vision.

After treatment, you may experience some mild discomfort, such as redness and swelling, which should subside within a few days. Most people report excellent vision post-treatment and no long-term side effects from cross-linking surgery.

If you have any questions about this new treatment option, or if you would like to schedule a consultation with one of our experts, please don’t hesitate to contact Mantracare Nadiad.

Procedure of C3R Eye Surgery

C3r surgery

Corneal collagen crosslinking (CCL) is a technique used to improve the appearance of the cornea in patients who have keratoconus or other types of corneal degeneration. It is an outpatient procedure that uses riboflavin (vitamin B2) as an agent to crosslink the corneal collagen fibers. 

The patient receives a local anesthetic and eyeglasses to protect their eyes during the procedure. A small incision is made in the center of the upper lid, and the riboflavin solution is injected into the eye using a syringe. The patient then remains awake during the procedure, which usually takes about 30 minutes. The area around the eye is then closed with stitches. 

The patient may experience some mild discomfort and blurred vision after the procedure, but these symptoms generally subside within a few days. CCL can improve the appearance of the cornea by restoring its structural integrity and reducing its degree of keratoconus or other types of corneal degeneration.

Happy Patients from Nadiad after C3R Surgery

Rishi Sachdeva

“I have always had a lot of trouble with my eyes, especially with the dryness and haze. I would get mists that would enter my eyes and it was hard for me to do anything, like read or watch TV. This is something that really bothers me, so I wanted to see what my options were. When I found out about corneal collagen crosslinking with riboflavin surgery from MantraCare, I knew this was a good option for me.”

– Rishi (Nadiad)
