"Corneal Cross-Linking" (CXL) is a medical procedure designed to treat certain corneal conditions, most commonly keratoconus. The primary purpose of CXL is to strengthen the cornea by increasing the cross-linking of collagen fibers, which helps to halt or slow down the progression of conditions characterized by corneal thinning and bulging.
