www.drjoannegoh.com.au
Popularly known as keratoplasty, corneal transplant surgery is a medical procedure that aims to restore vision impaired by corneal disease, injury, or other conditions. The cornea is the clear front part of the eye that plays a crucial role in focusing vision. A disease in it or its damage leads to clurred vision or total vision loss and affects the individual’s quality of life significantly. The surgical process involves replacing the diseased or damaged cornea with a healthy donor cornea. There are various types of corneal transplants, including partial thickness (endothelial keratoplasty) and full thickness (penetrating keratoplasty) procedures, each catering to various corneal conditions.
