Crosslink Keratoconus, which is associated with thinning of the cornea and increased convexity, may progress gradually and further reduce the patient's vision. Rubbing the eye plays an important role in the development of keratoconus. Eye rubbing may be done out of habit or due to eye sensitivity and dry eyes. They have no effect in preventing the progression of keratoconus.. The effectiveness of using a ring (ring) in preventing the progression of keratoconus has not been proven either.. Next, we will introduce a treatment method called cross-linking. Stay with us. It is an effective treatment to prevent the progression of keratoconus. In recent years, an effective method to prevent the development of keratoconus, which is known as cross-linking, has been invented. In this method, strong connections between the collagen layers of the cornea tissue are established and the laxity of the cornea tissue is corrected. In countries where cross-linking has been used at the right time, the need for corneal transplantation has decreased significantly. Therefore, timely diagnosis of keratoconus is very important. Patients with keratoconus do not require cross-transplantation, and this treatment is used for younger people, mostly under 18 years of age, or for cases where progression of keratoconus has been seen on corneal imaging. **Read more: Everything about keratoconus disease and treatment **
