Réduit le temps et les coûts liés à l'exécution du CXL
Remember that every cross-linking procedure not only improves biomechanics, it also ?disinfects? the cornea by directly killing all micro-organisms and by inhibiting cellular replication. This is why a cornea at the end of every CXL and PACK-CXL procedure is ?sterile?. And by the way: office-based cataract surgery et office-based intravitreal injections have been performed in many thousands of cases without increased infection risk.
Irradiation time is not too long. Current modern protocols are integrated in the C-eye device and treat in as little as 10 minutes (CXL) and 4 minutes (PACK-CXL). See the published approach ici.
We need 3 elements for successful cross-linking: UV light, oxygen and riboflavin. Both UV light and oxygen do not ?care? whether the patient is laying down or sitting. As for riboflavin, published research shows that riboflavin concentration is stable in the upright position for up to 60 minutes - much longer than we need for a CXL treatment.
Offer the patient the comfortable surgeon?s chair with the armrest and take the extra time to ensure that the patient is well-adjusted. Then, the patient is very comfortable.
Fixation is no issue. Offer the patient the fixation target that most slit lamps offer (for retinal examination) and the patient will keep a very steady fixation, as you can see ici.

The advantages of performing corneal cross-linking (CXL) at the slit lamp are well established. It brings CXL out of the
It has been quite the debate. Should surgeons drop riboflavin onto the cornea during the UV irradiation part of a
Photoactivated chromophore for keratitis-corneal cross-linking (PACK-CXL) has progressed a great deal since it was first developed (1) as a treatment
EMAGine’s Chief Scientific Officer, Professor Farhad Hafezi of the ELZA Institute in Zurich, Switzerland, has prepared a presentation that provides a comprehensive overview of how oxygen concentration is at the center of all these decisions.
Dr. Sebastian Siebelman from the media outlet, “Digital Ophthalmology” interviewed EMAGine AG’s Chief Executive Officer, Nikki Hafezi, on how she turns ideas into reality ? and this includes EMAGine AG!
This month, a landmark PACK-CXL trial was published that shows that PACK-CXL is an effective corneal infection therapy.
