Enhanced Transepithelial Riboflavin Delivery Using Femtosecond Laser-Machined Epithelial Microchannels

PURPOSE: This study describes a femtosecond laser (FS) approach to machine corneal epithelial microchannels for enhancing riboflavin (Rf) penetration into the cornea prior to corneal crosslinking (CXL). METHODS: Using a 1030-nm FS laser with 5- to 10-µJ pulse energy, the corneal epithelium of slaugh...
