Corneal Cross-Linking, Second Edition is a ground-breaking resource for treating primary acquired and secondary induced ectatic disorders. This innovative approach has also proven effective in treating corneal infectious and non-infectious melting, and conditions such as Fuchs’ endothelial dystrophy. Its advanced corneal cross-linking (CXL) treatment process, detailed in the new edition, provides a promising alternative to traditional methods.
In this revised and expanded version, Drs. Farhad Hafezi and J. Bradley Randleman offer a comprehensive overview of the CXL technique, including:
– The foundational science behind CXL.
– Detailed treatment protocols and their outcomes.
– Recognizing and managing potential complications.
– Modifying the standard protocol for unique circumstances.
Corneal Cross-Linking, Second Edition is updated with over twenty new chapters that delve into latest advances and future directions in the field of CXL research and clinical practice. This makes it an indispensable resource for any clinician or researcher looking to stay at the forefront of this rapidly progressing field.
Expanded sections in this edition include:
– Alternative treatment protocols.
– Corneal imaging and biomechanics.
– Combinations of cross-linking with other refractive treatments.
– A section dedicated to the most controversial topics in the field today.
Eberhard Spoerl, PhD and Theo Seiler, MD, PhD, endorse this edition with their testament: “Since the publication of the first edition of this book in 2013, our knowledge of corneal cross-linking has significantly increased, both scientifically and clinically. Today, concise recommendations (guidelines for cross-linking) help the clinician to select the patients, make decisions, and provide optimal treatment
