Cornea Transplant

The cornea is the clear part of the eye that protects the iris, pupil, and anterior chamber. It is in charge of refracting light so that we can see. The cornea is composed of five distinct layers, each of which serves a distinct function, such as absorbing nutrients and oxygen from tears and preventing foreign objects from entering the eye. It thus protects the eye from damage caused by minor abrasions. Deeper abrasions can cause scarring in the cornea, reducing its transparency. When the cornea is damaged, the eye can no longer refract or bend light, causing difficulty seeing.

Cornea Transplantation may be performed to treat the damaged cornea and restore vision. Cornea transplantation is a surgical procedure in which the surgeon removes diseased or damaged corneal tissue and replaces it with healthy tissue. Deceased human donors provide healthy corneal tissue. The transplant can restore clear vision, allowing the patient to live a better life.

A corneal transplant can also be used to treat ulcers, complications from previous eye surgery, swelling or clouding of the cornea, and bulging out of the cornea. It is critical to locate a donor cornea prior to the procedure. Finding a donor cornea is no longer a difficult task because many people expressly request that their corneas be donated after death. However, corneas cannot be donated by deceased patients who had nervous system conditions, infections, or prior eye surgery or problems.

A Cornea Transplant is a complex procedure that requires the expertise of experienced specialists and can thus be costly. Cornea Transplant in India, Cornea Transplant in Turkey, and Cornea Transplant in Thailand are all options. Please contact us for more information.
