Resumen

There are ocular topical medicines like ciprofloxacin that when used alone or in combination can deposit on the cornea after surgical procedures during the period of cornel de-epithelization. We present here the first case reported in the country of a patient with keratoconus who presented corneal deposits after undergoing corneal cross-linking likely due to the use of topical ciprofloxacin.
