Interventions

PROCEDURE

Corneal Donor Tissue with Cross Linking

Participants are transplanted with corneal donor tissue that has been treated with 0.1% riboflavin (Vitamin B2) and 20% dextran (Photrexa® Viscous \& Photrexa®) with UV light treatment.

PROCEDURE

Corneal Donor Tissue without Cross Linking

Participants are transplanted with corneal donor tissue that has not been treated with the UV light and the 0.1% riboflavin (Vitamin B2) and 20% dextran (Photrexa® Viscous \& Photrexa®) without UV light treatment, this is the control group.
