Experimental evaluation of stiffening effect induced by UVA/Riboflavin corneal cross-linking using intact porcine eye globes.
UVA/riboflavin corneal cross-linking (CXL) is a common used approach to treat progressive keratoconus. This study aims to investigate the alteration of corneal stiffness following CXL by mimicking the inflation of the eye under the in vivo loading conditions. Seven paired porcine eye globes were inv...
