In a large mid-European study population including subgroup analysis of mild and moderate keratoconus, accelerated CXL showed similar results to conventional CXL regarding keratometry, corneal topography indices, and CDVA, but further improvement of UDVA. Preoperative Kmax did not affect the postoperative course of corneal topography indices and TCT.
