Photoactivated chromophore for keratitis corneal collagen cross-linking (procedure)
Photoactivated chromophore for keratitis corneal collagen cross-linking
PACK-CXL - photoactivated chromophore for keratitis-corneal collagen cross-linking
A corneal collagen cross-linking procedure performed to treat infectious keratitis. In contrast to standard CXL for ectatic disorders, this procedure is intended primarily for its antimicrobial effect via the generation of reactive oxygen species. It typically involves a modified protocol, including accelerated ultraviolet radiation exposure and may be performed in the presence of active infection and epithelial disruption to enhance riboflavin penetration and pathogen kill.
