VibeX Rapid™

CE marked VibeX Rapid™ riboflavin is formulated to improve diffusion rates while decreasing corneal thinning. VibeX Rapid has a diffusion rate of twice that of standard riboflavin and is topically applied to the cornea after epithelium removal. UVA light from the KXL^® system is then applied for cross-linking.

Technical Information

Formulation:
0.1% Riboflavin, Saline, HPMC

Procedure:
Cross-Linking for keratoconus & corneal ectasia

Application:
Epithelium-off

VibeX Xtra™

CE marked VibeX Xtra™ riboflavin is formulated specifically for use during the Lasik Xtra^® procedure. VibeX Xtra is applied directly to the stromal bed prior to replacing the flap following excimer laser ablation. Formulated in an isotonic solution, VibeX Xtra diffuses quickly to minimize flap exposure time and deliver the appropriate concentration of riboflavin for cross-linking. Once the flap has been repositioned over the cornea, UVA light from the KXL^® system is applied to activate VibeX Xtra to restore biomechanical integrity to the cornea.

Technical Information

Formulation:
0.22% Riboflavin, Saline, Isotonic

Procedure:
Lasik Xtra

Application:
Stromal Bed

ParaCel™

CE marked ParaCel™ is Avedro’s two-step trans-epithelial riboflavin specifically formulated for direct application on the intact epithelium. ParaCel’s higher concentration of riboflavin and proprietary formulation allow for fast penetration and diffusion into the corneal stroma.

Intact epithelium diminishes the effects of cross-linking when low-powered UVA devices are used. Avedro’s KXL^® system offers 45 mW/cm2 of power for effective, cross-linking through the intact epithelium using ParaCel.

Application:
Epithelium-on
