Cornea Transplant at NMC Specialty Hospital, Dubai

A cornea transplant (keratoplasty) is a surgical procedure to replace part of your cornea with corneal tissue from a donor. Your cornea is the transparent, dome-shaped surface of your eye. It's where light enters your eye and is a large part of your eye's ability to see clearly.

A cornea transplant can restore vision, reduce pain, and improve the appearance of a damaged or diseased cornea.

Most cornea transplant procedures are successful. But cornea transplant carries a small risk of complications, such as rejection of the donor cornea.

What you need to know about Cornea Transplant in Dubai

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. 

These varied conditions posing treatment possibilities through cornea transplant affect the eyes' clarity of vision, damage the appearance of the eye due to cornea damage, and cause discomfort and pain.

In some instances, the patient might even experience steady improvements up to a year post-surgery. Embrace this road to recovery with patience and positivity as each passing day is a stride towards your ultimate goal, the precious gift of sight.

In Dubai, it is essential to choose a medical facility known for its excellence in ophthalmologic care. Your fears are entirely understandable, considering the intricate and delicate nature of the operation. However, the procedure's high success rate should help in mitigating some of your concerns.
