CXL follow ups

Postby electricheadx » Tue 25 Jan 2011 12:08 pm

Hi everyone

Just posting an update on the follow up i had for the CXL treatment last week.
Everything looks good in both eyes so far. Progression of the KC has been halted in both eyes and some degree of flattening has occurred.
As for the contacts i am getting on quite well with the S02clear lenses i now have. My optom says that i am suffering from some dryness when the lenses are in but she will monitor it pretty closely. So all in all thing are going very well.

I have copies of my before and after topo scans, If anybody would be interested in looking at them i can post them up on the forum.

The clinic has also performed their first Keraflex procedure 3-4 weeks ago. I got to have a look at the data they have so far and it is looking very promising. There was a marked improvement in the corneal shape after the procedure and so far it appears to be holding. I will be back there in a couple of months an will try to get some more details then.

Regards
Denis
