Cornea Transplant / Keratoplasty In Rajkot
Cornea transplant/keratoplasty is a medical procedure whereby the damaged or diseased cornea is replaced with a healthy one. This surgery can be performed for various reasons, such as to improve vision or to relieve pain.
Rajkot is a city in Gujarat, India which is known for its high-quality medical care. There are many hospitals and clinics in Rajkot that offer cornea transplant/keratoplasty, and the surgery is typically very successful. The cost of the procedure can vary depending on the hospital and doctor, but it is generally quite affordable.
Types of Corneal Transplant Surgeries
There are many different types of corneal transplant surgeries, each with its own benefits and drawbacks. 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) are all types of artificial cornea transplants.
PK is the most common type of artificial cornea transplant surgery, and it is usually used to replace a damaged or defective natural eye lens. DSEK and DSAEK are both types of penetrating keratoplasty procedures that remove the entire damaged or defective cornea and then reconstruct it using a specially designed artificial lens. DMEK is a less invasive type of penetrating keratoplasty that uses a smaller incision than DSEK and doesn’t require the removal of the eye’s original lens. SALK is an outpatient procedure that replaces only the outermost layer of the natural cornea with an artificial one. Artificial corneas come in several different shapes and sizes, and they can be made from either silicone or acrylic materials.
