Abstract
Significant epithelial remodeling occurred after accelerated CXL in eyes with progressive keratoconus, with improved regularity across the central 6.0 mm, by 6 months after treatment. There was poor correlation between focal epithelial thickness and anterior curvature changes, with wide variability between patients. Establishing the pattern of epithelial remodeling after CXL might help optimize future custom treatment protocols.
