    Abstract:

    In recent years, with the development of corneal cross-linking technology, corneal cross-linking therapy combined with adopting riboflavin and ultraviolet has been widely used in several corneal disorders, not only for keratoconus, but also for other corneal diseases, including infectious keratitis,chemical corneal injury, bullous keratopathy, and refractive surgery. Corneal cross-linking is a non-invasive procedure with the virtue of minor damage, rapid rehabilitation, convenient operation, and high safety. This review aims to investigate the mechanism of corneal cross-linking therapy, emphasizing the new progress of its efficacy and safety in the application of treating non-expanding corneal diseases, including infectious keratitis, chemical burns, bullous keratopathy and marginal degeneration. Corneal cross-linking therapy may be potentially helpful in the treatment of non-expanding corneal diseases.
