Corneal Transplantation
Corneal transplant surgery is done to replace a diseased or damaged cornea with healthy donor corneal tissue. It is helpful for people with progressive corneal disease like Fuchs dystrophy, keratoconus, cornea damaged by severe scarring due to injury or infections like keratitis, damaged corneas following eye surgeries. Corneal transplant surgery can involve removing either the entire thickness of the cornea, known as Penetrating Keratoplasty, or partial thickness of the cornea as in Lamellar Keratoplasty. Feel free to ask your best cornea specialist doctor for a corneal transplant surgery at Swami Vivekanand Netra Mandir Eye Hospital in Surat.
