AI-Summary

What this Trial Is About

Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) devices are non-contact instruments that can measure the depth of scars, other causes of cloudiness of the cornea, and degree of corneal thinning in patients with keratoconus. Laser Custom Corneal Collagen Cross-linking (CXL) significantly decreases corneal aberrations and improves vision. This study will use OCT-guided setting for the lasers used in the corneal smoothing portion of the laser custom CXL procedure to assess the affect on visual outcomes.
