To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the PXL Platinum 330 device for performing Corneal Crosslinking in patients with corneal thinning conditions.
Patients with progressive keratoconus, pellucid marginal degeneration, or at risk for post-refractive corneal ectasia will be recruited and undergo epithelial-on corneal crosslinking with the Peschke PXL-330 system using pulsed, accelerated energy delivery. Patients will undergo monitoring for 1 year, with serial measurements of corneal topography, visual acuity, intraocular pressure and visual function questionnaire assessments.

Mean Keratometry in Diopters
Average keratometry across the anterior topography of the cornea computed by a validated topographer
Time frame: 1 year
Best Corrected Visual Acuity With Spectacles or Contact Lenses
Measurement of best corrected visual acuity on the validated early-treatment diabetic retinopathy study scale. Snellen chart was used. Values closer to 20/20 indicate better vision.
Time frame: 1 year
