Low‐intensity low‐frequency ultrasound mediates riboflavin delivery during corneal crosslinking
Abstract We employed the mechanical effect from 40 kHz ultrasound (US) to improve the delivery of riboflavin into corneal stroma for collagen crosslinking, which can benefit the treatment of keratoconus and other corneal ectasias. Experiments were conducted, first with porcine corneas ex vivo and th...
