The CXL Experts' Meeting is an independent educational forum dedicated to bringing together corneal cross-linking key opinion leaders for a lively full 3-day program that covers everything from the fundamentals to the latest developments.
Day1: Wetlabs and Workshops on CXL, PACK-CXL excimer laser/CXL treatment of keratoconus
Day 2: CXL State of the art. Principles – core cross-linking knowledge
- Why we cross-link – our current understanding of the pathologies present in keratectasia and corneal keratitis, reviewing from the molecular and cellular level upwards.
- How cross-linking works – the chemistry of CXL and how CXL changes the cornea to treat the underlying pathologies.
Day 3: The future of CXL technology
Principles – the fundamental research work that is pushing the field forward
- Corneal biomechanics research and advanced diagnostics: high-speed dynamic Scheimpflug imaging, Brillouin microscopy
- Alternative approaches to cross-linking
- Machine learning and AI approaches to planning treatment
Clinics – a comprehensive view on clinical research findings related to:
- Latest CXL protocols: customized, epi-on, iontophoresis, etc.
- CXL for ectasia
- CXL Plus (combination with refractive surgery)
- PACK-CXL for infectious keratitis
- New CXL technologies
