Efficacy of customized corneal crosslinking versus standard corneal crosslinking in patients with progressive keratoconus (C-CROSS study): study protocol for a randomized controlled trial

Abstract Background Keratoconus is a degenerative disorder of the cornea leading to a protrusion and thinning with loss of visual acuity.
