Cross-Linking for Keratoconus

Parag Majmudar MD, Terry Kim, MD

Show Description +

Parag Majmudar, MD, speaks with Terry Kim, MD, about the magnitude of the treatment's effect and the long-term stability of cross-linking for keratoconus. Dr. Majmudar says that the different types of cross-linking procedures make it difficult to draw meaningful conclusions regarding their effect. A recent study, however, provides long-term cross-linking data on 34 eyes that show a visual acuity improvement in patients with keratoconus.
