Corneal Cross-Linking is a surgical procedure that strengthens the cornea, typically used for treating progressive keratoconus and post-refractive surgery ectasia. It involves applying riboflavin drops to the cornea followed by exposure to ultraviolet A light, resulting in increased collagen cross-links. This strengthens the cornea, preventing further bulging and reducing the risk of vision loss.
