Corneal cross-linking (CXL) stops the progression of corneal ectasias (like keratoconus). Over the 6 to 12 months following the procedure, the cornea often flattens and remodels, leading to a significant change in higher-order aberrations (HOAs). For some patients, HOA’s get better, but for another portion of patients, it may seem worse.
Dr. Motwani explains a few reasons why these changes or increase in higher order aberrations may occur right after the treatment for Keratoconus otherwise known as crosslinking.
