Diabetes mellitus affected biomechanical parameters of the human corneas, including increased CH, CRF, and CCT. Whether this observation has implications in the clinical management and understanding of corneal ectasia and glaucoma requires further study.

Two years after CXL, the observation of stable UCVA, improved BCVA, and reduced keratometry suggests stabilization in progression of keratoconus. Unchanged corneal thickness, endothelial cell density, and foveal thickness suggest the long-term safety of this procedure. The observed increase in axial length and stability in corneal biomechanical parameters measured with the ocular response analyzer require further study for verification and explanation.
