Customised peripheral corneal cross-linking (P-CXL) treated very severe keratoconus with a success rate of 85.7% and improved visual acuity and tomographic indicators in most cases. While a longer follow-up and a larger sample would help to support such conclusions to a greater extent, these results allow to broaden the treatment spectrum for patients with stage 3 and 4 keratoconus and contact lens tolerance.
