“CXL for ultra-thin corneas: the sub400 protocol” shows a revolutionary new protocol to treat ultra-thin keratoconic corneas down to 215 µm thickness.
Recognizing the most influential people around the globe in ophthalmology, The Ophthalmologist, an internationally recognized magazine, named Prof. Farhad Hafezi MD, PhD, FARVO of the ELZA Institute, Dietikon, Zurich, Switzerland for the fourth consecutive time to its biennial Power List, listing those 100 people who are the most influential in ophthalmology.

The congress covered all of ophthalmology, but had a large cornea and refractive sessions, where Prof. Hafezi gave presentations on ELZA’s current research work. His podium presentations reviewed ELZA’s research into refractive surgery, corneal cross-linking and PACK-CXL for the treatment of corneal infection.
