Abstract

Corneal collagen cross-linking was performed using Russian UV-devices and solution of riboflavin. In the main group, cross-linking was provided simultaneously on both eyes, in the control group — consistently. In both groups, there were no significant differences between the severity of corneal syndrome, rate of epithelialization, functional and refractive results and endothelial cells density. Simultaneous on both eyes corneal collagen crosslinking is effective method to treat keratoconus and significantly reduce the duration of the procedure.
