They must have specific signs of these conditions, be willing to follow the visit schedule, and not wear contact lenses before screening. Pregnant women, lactating mothers, and those with certain eye diseases or sensitivities are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The PXL Platinum 330 System combined with Riboflavin is being tested for safety and effectiveness in treating corneal thinning disorders. The study will assess if this device can stabilize the condition by strengthening the cornea.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While not explicitly listed here, potential side effects may include discomfort during treatment, changes in vision, inflammation or infection risk post-treatment due to UV exposure from the device.
