Correlation of Scheimpflug densitometry changes with clinical outcomes after corneal crosslinking

Although the greatest and most durable post-CXL densitometry change was in the anterior layer, the degree of increased densitometry haze in the mid-stromal layer was most associated with and possibly predictive of improvement in CDVA, maximum K, and HOAs. The persistence of corneal haze at 6 months, measured by increased densitometry, might be a prognostic marker for CXL effectiveness.
