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

While it is possible to undergo CXL a few months after your LASIK procedure, the process will definitely be more troublesome as it will take longer. When not incorporated in your LASIK procedure, CXL will also cost much more.

Since there are no significant added benefits of a delayed CXL treatment, it will be best to incorporate it immediately after your LASIK procedure.
