Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2008055118A2] Corneal prostheses, such as onlays and implants, have a surface which displays a native biomolecule capable of cross-linking with endogenous moieties in corneal tissue. After placement, such prostheses may be immobilized by exposure to ultraviolet or other irradiation which cross-links the biomolecules with the endogenous moieties.
