Cornea Transplant / Keratoplasty In Mathura​

A cornea transplant is a surgical procedure to replace the damaged or diseased eye lens with an artificial one. In Mathura, a leading eye surgery center offers a wide range of cornea transplant procedures including keratoplasty. This procedure is used to correct various diseases and conditions that affect the surface of the eye, such as age-related macular degeneration, glaucoma, and diabetic retinopathy. 

Keratoplasty is a delicate surgery that requires the utmost precision and accuracy. To achieve this, surgeons use cutting tools to remove the damaged portion of the cornea and then place a new artificial lens into its place. Patients generally experience minimal pain following keratoplasty, though some may experience mild discomfort for several weeks following surgery. 

Overall, keratoplasty is a highly successful procedure that can restore vision in patients suffering from various conditions related to the surface of their eyes. If you are considering undergoing keratoplasty in Mathura, be sure to speak with one of our experienced surgeons about your options.

Types of Corneal Transplant Surgeries

There are many types of corneal transplant surgeries, each with its own unique benefits and drawbacks. Some of the most common types of corneal transplants include penetrating keratoplasty (PK), Descemet’s stripping endothelial keratoplasty (DSEK/ DSAEK), Descemet’s membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK), deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (DALK), superficial anterior lamellar keratoplasty (SALK), and artificial cornea transplant (Keratoprosthesis).

PK is a type of surgery in which the surgeon makes a small hole in the front of your eye using a special instrument called a keratectomy knife. The surgeon then installs a new artificial lens into the hole. This type of surgery is often used to correct severe degrees of myopia or astigmatism.

DSEK is another type of surgery in which the surgeon makes a small hole in the front of your eye and then removes the damaged layer of cells that cover the inside surface of your iris. This procedure is often used to treat patients who have experienced significant damage to their iris from injury, disease, or age.

DMEK is an advanced type of K-PK surgery in which the surgeon replaces both your original lens and the damaged layer of cells that cover the inside surface of your iris with artificial materials. This procedure is often used to treat patients who have experienced significant damage to both their lens and their iris.

DALK is a type of surgery in which the surgeon makes a small incision in the front of your eye and then removes the entire outer layer of your cornea. This procedure is often used to treat patients who have suffered from Keratoconus, a condition that causes the cornea to bulge outward.

SALK is a type of surgery in which the surgeon makes a small incision in the front of your eye and then removes only the outer layer of your cornea. This procedure is often used to treat patients who have suffered from myopia or nearsightedness.

Keratoprosthesis is an artificial cornea that is surgically implanted into the eye. This procedure is often used to treat patients who have suffered from severe damage to their corneas.
