Gaping of radial and transverse corneal incisions occurring early after CXL

A 33-year-old woman with corneal ectasia after radial and astigmatic keratotomy had corneal collagen crosslinking with resultant gaping of the inferior incisions (2 radials and 1 transverse) that required suturing. At 6 months, the incisions healed leaving fibrotic scars. Visual acuity, refractions, corneal photographs, and topographic and corneal wavefront measurements are presented. At 2.5 years, the topographic inferior corneal irregularity continued to improve. Financial Disclosure: No author has a financial or proprietary interest in any material or method mentioned.
