Corneal eye conditions

The cornea is the eye’s outermost layer. It is the clear, dome shaped surface that covers the front of the eye and plays a vital role in focusing your vision. If your cornea becomes too cloudy or changes shape, your vision can be affected.

PTK is considered a bridge between medical and surgical management of different corneal diseases in a setting where a full thickness transplant can be avoided.

Partial-Thickness Corneal Transplant and Full Thickness Cornea Transplant.

For those with cornea disease, Descemet’s Stripping Automated Endothelial Keratoplasty (DSAEK) provides an option that wasn’t previously available.
