Corneal Cross-Linking, Second Edition offers an innovative and comprehensive approach to treating primary acquired and secondary induced ectatic disorders. With promising applications in addressing corneal infectious and non-infectious melting, as well as conditions like Fuchs’ endothelial dystrophy, corneal cross-linking (CXL) presents a valuable alternative treatment option.
Authored by leading experts Drs. Farhad Hafezi and J. Bradley Randleman, this updated edition delves into the core aspects of the CXL process, covering essential topics such as basic science foundations, treatment protocols, outcomes, complications management, and customization of protocols for special scenarios. The field of corneal cross-linking is rapidly evolving, leading to the expansion of brief topics into detailed chapters or sections within this edition.
Noteworthy additions to the Second Edition include enhanced sections on alternative treatment protocols, corneal imaging, biomechanics, integration of cross-linking with other refractive treatments, and a dedicated segment addressing current controversies in the field. With each chapter updated and over twenty new chapters highlighting the latest advancements and future directions, this edition remains at the forefront of CXL research and clinical application.
In the words of Eberhard Spoerl, PhD, and Theo Seiler, MD, PhD, “Since the initial publication of this book in 2013, our understanding of corneal cross-linking has significantly advanced. Concise recommendations and guidelines for cross-linking empower clinicians to select suitable patients, make informed decisions, and deliver optimal treatment outcomes.”
Explore the cutting-edge insights and practical guidance offered by Corneal Cross-Linking, Second Edition, a resource that bridges the gap between research and clinical practice, enriching the
