C3R Surgery In Pune​

Corneal collagen crosslinking (CCL) is an effective treatment for improving vision in patients with corneal degeneration. It combines riboflavin (vitamin B2) with ultraviolet A light to create crosslinks between the corneal collagen fibers. Over time, these crosslinks help to restore the cornea’s structure and function.

There are a few different types of CCL available, depending on the type of treatment that is desired. The most common form of CCL is called “photocoagulation,” which uses a laser to create small cuts on the surface of the eye. These cuts allow for the Riboflavin to enter the eye and start working its magic.

Procedure of C3R Eye Surgery

C3r surgery

Corneal collagen crosslinking (CCL) is a common type of eye surgery that uses riboflavin to help create new Corneal tissue. The procedure is usually done as an outpatient procedure and typically takes about an hour to complete. 

During the CCL procedure, the doctor uses a special laser to break down the front layer of your eye’s cornea. After breaking down the cornea, the doctor then places riboflavin molecules onto the broken down surface. 

The riboflavin molecules help stimulate new growth in the existing Corneal tissue, which then restores some of the lost vision in your eye.
