Corneal Transplant in India
Modern partial and full-thickness corneal transplant procedures performed by senior corneal surgeons in Mumbai.
When is a corneal transplant needed?
A corneal transplant (keratoplasty) replaces damaged or diseased corneal tissue with healthy donor tissue. It is recommended for advanced keratoconus, corneal scarring from injury or infection, corneal dystrophies, and failed previous transplants.
Types of corneal transplant
DSEK / DMEK
Partial-thickness endothelial transplant — for Fuchs' dystrophy and endothelial failure. Faster recovery, smaller incision.
