A new Die Ophthalmologie review explains ELZA-sub400 cross-linking, an individualised protocol that fits the UV dose to each cornea, making cross-linking possible in keratoconus corneas as thin as 214 µm.
ELZA researchers report 12-month outcomes for a second-generation sub400 cross-linking protocol that extends CXL to ultra-thin keratoconus and post-LASIK ectasia corneas below 400 micrometres, halting progression in 76% of eyes while shortening treatment to about 18 minutes.
A new ELZA review in Die Ophthalmologie examines the mechanisms, clinical evidence, protocol selection, and indications for PACK-CXL in infectious keratitis.
Keratoconus affects not only the cornea but also the retina, choroid, and optic nerve head, as shown in a meta-analysis co-authored by Prof. Farhad Hafezi.
A new publication in JRS reports the long-term endothelial safety of the ELZA-sub400 protocol for treating progressive keratoconus in corneas thinner than 400 µm.
Transepithelial corneal cross-linking offers a new epi-on CXL protocol with biomechanical outcomes comparable to accelerated epi-off CXL for keratoconus treatment
