Can Corneal Cross-Linking (CXL) still be performed a few months after LASIK, and are there benefits in doing so?

Doctor's Answer

Yes, collagen cross-linking can be safely performed after the initial surgery. Although this is rarely performed in isolation.

Most commonly it is performed as an adjunctive procedure during enhancement surgery (after the primary surgery) if required.
