Our Advanced Cornea Treatments
The cornea, a transparent protective layer covering the outer surface of the eye, serves not only to shield the eye from foreign particles and bacteria but also plays a crucial role in vision. It aids in focusing or refracting light as it enters the eye. Damage to the cornea caused by diseases, infections, or injuries can lead to the formation of scar tissue, which may disrupt vision by obstructing or distorting incoming light. Various conditions such as infections, degenerations, and other disorders can impact the cornea.

Various factors like smoking, diabetes, and impaired nerve function can delay corneal healing.
Some corneal transplants last forever, but others need to be replaced owing to transplant refusal. This can happen even 20 years later. It all relies on the age and health of the donated tissue; the warranty could just expire.
The cornea transplants have a high success rate, but it may take months or even years for your vision to fully recover. Although surgical complications are uncommon, they can include infection, hemorrhage, and donor tissue rejection.

To restore normal vision, your damaged cornea will be removed and replaced with a transplant during surgery.

While it's not always possible to prevent cornea problems entirely, there are measures you can take to mitigate risks:
- Maintain cleanliness with your contact lenses.
- Avoid sleeping with contact lenses, regardless of packaging indications.
- Wear protective eyewear during sports activities where eye exposure to foreign objects is a possibility.
- Seek medical attention if something becomes lodged in your eye instead of attempting self-removal.
- Undergo regular eye examinations to detect potential eye issues early on.
- Utilize safety goggles when operating machinery or working with chemicals, including during yard work or when using tools like hammers and saws.
A corneal scar may remain unchanged over time, especially if it was caused by an injury or illness. Some eye scars, however, might worsen over months or years if they are caused by underlying eye illnesses. It is critical to identify the origin of scarring in order to prevent it from worsening over time. To avoid further consequences of corneal scarring, it is necessary to get it treated on time.
While the cornea can heal itself, certain layers like Bowman's membrane may not regenerate, potentially leading to scarring.
