الوصف: | Background: Corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) is considered an effective procedure for slowing down or eliminating the progression of keratoconus. New techniques, in combination with CXL, have been proposed to stop the evolution of keratoconus and improve the visual function. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of combined photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) with mitomycin-C (MMC) application and CXL in the management of grade 1–2 keratoconus over a 2-year follow-up. Methods: Fifteen eyes underwent topography-guided PRK with 0.02% MMC application immediately followed by standard CXL. Results: Best corrected visual acuity improved from 0.15 ± 0.11 logMAR to 0.08 ± 0.09 logMAR at 24 months ( p |
