This is a phase I/II prospective, randomized, multi-center, double-masked, vehicle-controlled clinical trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of corneal collagen cross-linking the keratoprosthesis carrier tissue in subjects who are candidates for high-risk keratoprosthesis implantation but because of a history of corneal melts or autoimmune diseases are not candidate for a traditional corneal transplant.

Conditions

  • Keratolysis

Interventions

DRUG

Riboflavin

Riboflavin, a water soluble vitamin, is an essential nutrient and a natural component of many foods.

DRUG

Dextran

Dextran is used to increase the viscosity of the solution.

DEVICE

UVA Light Source

Avedro's KXL® System is a UVA irradiation system that uses a light emitting diode (LED) to deliver a dose of UVA light to a targeted treatment area for illuminating the cornea during corneal collagen cross-linking.
