System and methods for a corrective eye procedure include at least one application device configured to be positioned at a selected area of an eye (e.g., equatorial sclera, posterior sclera, cornea, etc.). The at least one device includes at least one channel and at least one illumination guide. A cross-linking agent source is coupled to the at least one channel. An illumination source is coupled to the at least one illumination guide. The at least one device delivers the cross-linking agent to the selected area of the eye. The at least one device delivers photo-activating light from the illumination source to the selected area of the eye after the cross-linking agent has been delivered. The photo-activating light includes one or more doses necessary for activating the cross-linking agent and for activating TGF-&bgr; isoforms to improve health of extracellular matrices in the selected area of the eye. |
