What you need to know about Cornea Transplant in Istanbul

A cornea transplant, known scientifically as keratoplasty, is a surgical procedure primarily aiming to boost vision by replacing a portion of the cornea, the transparent, dome-shaped eye surface permitting light entrance, with donor tissue. The cornea has an integral role in maintaining crystal clear vision, hence a cornea transplant can significantly improve vision, alleviate pain, and enhance the aesthetics of a deteriorated or diseased cornea.

Many affirm the high success rate of cornea transplants, however, some complications, including the rejection of the donor cornea, may arise. Cornea transplants are typically used to enhance the vision of individuals with damaged corneas and alleviate common symptoms of cornea diseases. 

A multitude of conditions can be remedied using a cornea transplant, one of which is keratoconus, where the cornea bulges outward. Fuchs dystrophy, a hereditary condition, can also be treated via cornea transplant. Other treatable conditions include the thinning or tearing of the cornea and cornea scarring caused by infections or injuries. Furthermore, swelling cornea and corneal ulcers that resist medical treatment can also be addressed through this procedure. Previous eye surgery complications can likewise be settled with a cornea transplant.
