Penetrating keratoplasty

Comprehensive surgery for severe corneal issues

Penetrating Keratoplasty is a more extensive surgical procedure that involves replacing the entire thickness of the cornea. This method is typically indicated for patients with severe corneal damage or disease.

During Penetrating Keratoplasty, the damaged cornea is carefully removed, and a full-thickness donor cornea is stitched into place. While the recovery period may take longer compared to less invasive options, this surgery can significantly enhance vision for individuals suffering from serious corneal problems.

If you are experiencing severe corneal issues, Penetrating Keratoplasty can be an effective solution to consider for restoring your vision.
