What is a Cornea Transplant?
A cornea transplant, also known as keratoplasty, is an ophthalmic procedure that involves the surgical replacement of the damaged or diseased cornea of a patient with healthy corneal tissue taken from a deceased donor. The cornea is the front, transparent layer of the eye that covers and protects the pupil, iris and the anterior chamber. It also helps to refract light along with the eye lens. The aim of the surgery is to help enhance the patient's vision and improve his/her quality of life.
People with a damaged cornea are likely to have a blurred and cloudy vision often accompanied by persistent eye pain and discomfort. While mild corneal injuries or damage can be treated with the help of simple medication, for those whose cornea has been damaged beyond repair, surgery is the only resort.
Here are a few conditions that might call for the need for a corneal transplant:
