A cornea transplant, also known as a keratoplasty, is a surgical procedure to replace a damaged or diseased cornea with a healthy one. The cornea is the clear outer layer of the eye and plays an important role in focusing light. A transplant can improve vision and quality of life for people who have lost all or part of their cornea due to injury or disease.
Jaipur is home to some of the best eye hospitals in the country and offers world-class treatment for various eye conditions. The city has a team of experienced ophthalmologists who are skilled in performing complex surgeries like a cornea transplant. Keratoplasty in Jaipur is often successful in restoring vision and improving the quality of life for patients.
Causes Of Corneal Diseases
Types of Corneal Transplant Surgeries
There are five types of corneal transplant surgeries: 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). Each has its own benefits and drawbacks.
PK is the most common type of corneal transplant surgery, and it is done to replace a damaged or missing central cornea. This surgery involves making a small incision in the eye and removing the damaged or missing part of the cornea. The surgeon then replaces the damaged or missing part with an artificial cornea. PK is usually done as an outpatient procedure.
DSEK is a less common type of corneal transplant surgery that is used to replace a damaged or missing peripheral cornea. This surgery involves making a small incision in the eye and removing the damaged or missing part of the cornea. The surgeon then replaces the damaged or missing part with an artificial cornea. DSEK is usually done as an outpatient procedure.
DMEK is a more rare type of corneal transplant surgery that is used to replace a lost central or peripheral layer of the eye’s coatings called the stroma. This surgery involves making a small incision in the eye and removing the damaged or missing part of the cornea. The surgeon then replaces the damaged or missing part with an artificial cornea. DMEK is usually done as an outpatient procedure.
Deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (DALK) is the rarest type of corneal transplant surgery, and it is used to replace a damaged or missing part of the eye’s coatings called the endothelium. This surgery involves making a small incision in the eye and removing the damaged or missing part of the cornea. The surgeon then replaces the damaged or missing part with an artificial cornea. DALK is usually done in a hospital and requires an overnight stay.
SALK is the least common type of surgery, and it is used to replace a damaged or missing part of the cornea. It involves making a small incision in the eye and removing the damaged or missing part of the cornea. The surgeon then replaces the damaged or missing part with an artificial cornea. SALK is usually done as an outpatient procedure.
