C3R Surgery In Sikar​

Corneal collagen cross-linking with riboflavin (C3R) is a minimally invasive surgical treatment for corneal scarring and other causes of eye degeneration. C3R uses a laser to break down the corneal collagen structure, which triggers the body to produce new collagen. This new collagen helps to restore the structural integrity of the cornea and prevent further deterioration.

C3R has been shown to be effective in treating a wide range of corneal conditions, including keratoconus, post-refractive surgery complications, and irregular astigmatism. Patients typically experience a significant improvement in their vision following C3R treatment.

If you are interested in undergoing C3R treatment for your corneal condition, please contact our clinic in Sikar for more information.

Procedure of C3R Eye Surgery

C3r surgery

Before surgery, your doctor will give you a list of required medications. These include antibiotics to prevent infection, pain medication, and an anti-inflammatory drug. You may also need drops to keep your eyes lubricated during surgery.

The surgery takes about an hour and you will be asleep during it. First, the doctor will make a small cut in the lower lid of your eye. This allows them to easily see the surface of your eye. They then use a laser to break down the tough outer layer of your cornea (the epithelium). This allows the Riboflavin to penetrate deeper into the tissue and start crosslinking the collagen fibers.

Once crosslinking is complete, your doctor may leave a bandage over the wound for several days or weeks depending on the severity of your case. You may experience some mild discomfort following surgery, but it should subside within a few days. If you do experience any serious side effects, please contact your doctor as soon as possible.
