Cornea Transplant / Keratoplasty In Bhilwara
A cornea transplant, also called keratoplasty, is a surgical procedure to replace a damaged or diseased cornea with a healthy one from a donor. The cornea is the clear, dome-shaped outer surface of the eye that helps focus light. A transplant is usually needed when other treatments, such as eyeglasses, contact lenses, or medications, can’t help improve vision.
Cornea transplants are among the most successful of all organ transplants. More than 55,000 cornea transplants are performed each year in India alone. Most people who have a transplant surgery experience significant improvement in vision.
Mantracare, Bhilwara is one of the leading hospitals in India for cornea transplant surgeries. We have a team of highly skilled and experienced surgeons who have performed hundreds of such surgeries with success. If you or someone you know is suffering from a damaged or diseased cornea, please do not hesitate to get in touch with us for further information and treatment options.
Types of Corneal Transplant Surgeries
There are many types of corneal transplant surgeries, each with its own specific benefits and drawbacks. Penetrating keratoplasty (PK), Descemet’s stripping endothelial keratoplasty (DSEK/ DSAEK), Descemet’s membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK), deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (DALK), and superficial anterior lamellar keratoplasty (SALK) are the most common types of corneal transplants.
- PK is a surgery that usually requires less downtime than other types of corneal transplants, but it has a higher risk of rejection.
- DSEK and DSAEK both involve removing part of the donor eye’s capsular bag and then reattaching the edges of the newly created stroma. This technique allows for a more seamless connection between the new stroma and the donor eye tissue, which reduces the risk of rejection.
- DMEK is a similar type of surgery, but it uses artificial supporting structures to help support the new stroma after it has been created.
- DALK is a more advanced type of surgery that is typically used when other treatments, such as PK or DSEK, have not been successful. It involves creating a pocket inside the donor eye using an excimer laser, then stitching it closed.
- SALK is similar to DALK, but it uses a knife instead of an excimer laser to create the pocket.
