Purpose:

To report a patient with refractory keratitis after Boston type I keratoprosthesis treated with Corneal Collagen Cross-Linking (CXL).

Methods:

A case report study

Results:

A 29-year-old man with a history of chemical burn of the left eye underwent keratoprosthesis implantation. He developed an infectious keratitis 4 months after surgery which did not respond to topical antibiotics. The patient underwent corneal collagen cross-linking with a shield covering the keratoprosthesis optic. Three weeks after CXL, the infiltration completely resolved.

Conclusion:

Corneal collagen cross-linking might be beneficial in treatment of refractory keratitis in patients with Boston type I keratoprosthesis.
