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 individuals 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.

ments in surgical procedures and post-operative
care makes corneal transplants more effective and
safer than ever. This surgery offers a chance to
