Cases involved complicated corneal diseases such as melting keratitis, fungal keratitis, deep stromal defects, and stromal abscesses. Treatment consisted of topical or iontophoretic administration of 1% Rose Bengal followed by green light irradiation (550\u2009nm; 150\u2009J\/cm\n                      <jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\n                      ) for 10\u2009min. Most procedures (76.8%) were carried out under standing sedation. RGX was combined with adjunctive surgical procedures in 74 eyes (90.2%). Clinical evolution, epithelialization time, and complications were recorded.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Ocular comfort markedly improved within 1\u2009week in all horses. Keratomalacia resolved within 24\u2009h post\u2010RGX in 80% of affected eyes. Fluorescein\u2010negative corneal epithelialization was achieved in 86.6% of cases during hospitalization, with a mean healing time of 18.6\u2009\u00b1\u20097.3\u2009days. Complications were observed in 9.7% of eyes, predominantly associated with fungal keratitis. Rescue therapies, including repeat RGX and\/or surgical procedures, were successful in all but one case, which ultimately required enucleation. The overall success rate, defined as globe preservation and ulcer resolution, was 98.8%.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>RGX represents a safe and effective adjunctive treatment modality for complicated corneal ulcers and stromal abscesses in horses.
