CCL Vario (keratoconus)

Indications:
• Progressive Keratoconus
• Iatrogenic Ectasia
• Pellucid Marginal Degeneration

The CCL VARIO corneal cross-linking system was designed with a special focus on effectiveness, safety and user friendliness. It comes with one diode and special optics which is homogenizing the beam. Thus hot spots are being avoided and the endothelium is sufficiently protected. To offer more flexibility, it enables the surgeon to choose between three energy levels: 3 mW · 9 mW · 18 mW

This allows the surgeon to choose the ideal energy/time combination for the intended treatment: Standard - Accelerated - Express Cross-linking. At the end of the procedure the system switches off automatically.
3 mW x 1800 sec (30 min) = 5400 mJ
9 mW x 600 sec (10 min) = 5400 mJ
18 mW x 300 sec ( 5 min) = 5400 mJ

In recent years corneal cross-linking has become the standard procedure for treating patients with progressive keratoconus and other ectatic corneal diseases because of its effectiveness and lack of serious side effects. In a number of clinical studies it was demonstrated that in more than 85 % of eyes treated the BCVA increased significantly. Six months after the procedure cylinder was reduced in the majority of all patients. The steepest K-value was reduced by an average of up to 2 dioptres.
