OBJECTIVE To describe a new surgical technique where corneal cross-linking (CXL) (to treat corneal ectasias) and photo-activated chromophore for keratitis-CXL (PACK-CXL) are performed while the patient is seated in an upright position at the slit lamp. METHODS Topical anesthesia is applied in the waiting room, 10 minutes before the procedure. Once in the office or procedure room, eyelids and periorbital areas are disinfected with chloramphenicol and the patient is seated at the slit lamp. Epithelial debridement is performed with a cotton swab soaked in freshly prepared 40% ethanol, using 70 seconds of tapping, followed by gentle pressure to remove the epithelium. The patient is placed in the supine position for riboflavin application for 10 minutes. Stromal thickness is assessed using ultrasound pachymetry after 5 and 10 minutes. Finally, the patient is returned to the slit lamp to receive ultraviolet irradiation. RESULTS CXL at the slit lamp is an easy-to-perform technique that substantially reduces the infrastructure needed to perform CXL and PACK-CXL procedures. CONCLUSIONS A significant advantage of allowing CXL treatment at the slit lamp is that CXL technology can now be used in clinics that do not have easy access to an operating room infrastructure. Slit-lamp CXL can also reduce procedure costs by eliminating the technical fees related to the use of an operating room, making this treatment not only more accessible for patients, but also affordable.
