Postoperatively, corneal topography revealed keratoconus progression with an increase of 1.20\u2009diopters (D) in maximum keratometry (Kmax) and CXL was repeated. After the second treatment, a continuing significant corneal flattening (up to 16.00\u2009D in Kmax) was observed during the first 5\u2009years followed by stabilization during the last sixth year of follow-up. Both uncorrected and corrected distance visual acuity were improved while corneal thickness was decreased. There were no complications such as corneal opacification or endothelial cells decrease during the follow-up period.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Repeated CXL can induce an excessive corneal flattening more pronounced during the first years of follow-up followed by stabilization thereafter.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/1120672120945662","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,7,24]],"date-time":"2020-07-24T04:14:56Z","timestamp":1595564096000},"page":"NP12-NP14","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Evolution of corneal flattening after repeated corneal cross-linking during a 6-year follow-up"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"32","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2320-3057","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Michael A","family":"Grentzelos","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, University of Lausanne, Jules-Gonin Eye Hospital, Fondation Asile des aveugles, Lausanne, Switzerland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Nafsika","family":"Voulgari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, University of Lausanne, Jules-Gonin Eye Hospital, Fondation Asile des aveugles, Lausanne, Switzerland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Clarice","family":"Giacuzzo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, University of Lausanne, Jules-Gonin Eye Hospital, Fondation Asile des aveugles, Lausanne, Switzerland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Konstantinos","family":"Droutsas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"First Department of Ophthalmology, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, General Hospital \u201cG.
