First seen Mar 30, 2026 · Last updated May 20, 2026 · Updated 6 times
Summary
This study tests a tiny steroid-releasing implant called Dextenza against standard steroid eye drops for managing inflammation after corneal crosslinking surgery for keratoconus. About 20 people aged 13 and older with progressive keratoconus will take part. The goal is to see if the implant works as well as drops, offering a simpler option for those who struggle with eye drop routines.
