๐Ÿ‘ The acceptance of Glaukos Corporationโ€™s NDA for Epioxa marks a significant advancement in treating keratoconus, a condition where the cornea weakens and bulges, causing vision distortion. Epioxa offers a faster, non-invasive treatment option compared to traditional corneal cross-linking therapies, which require epithelium removal.

๐Ÿฅ In the UK, patients have benefited from local access to corneal cross-linking at Musgrove Park Hospital, which has improved their vision and stabilized the condition. This procedure has a 95% success rate, providing hope for many patients with this debilitating disease.
