Damages to the Corona emerge as one of the most stringent barriers to vision, degrading your quality of life. Fortunately, medical science advancements have brought Corneal Transplantation Surgery that can effectively restore the damages, improving your vision. The Dania Medicare solutions Corneal Transplant Surgery cost in India comes within affordable ranges. Therefore, you need not refrain from undergoing surgery for financial constraints. But, it is more important to know the target patients who will benefit most from the surgery, the possible risk factors, and the recovery time. Here come the key points in that regard.
The most significant benefit of Corneal Transplant surgery is that it significantly improves vision. After undergoing surgery, the patient can overcome the infection and damage. Observation suggests that the patient gets welcome relief from the severe pain that arises with the damaged cornea.
One needs to undergo surgery when correction is needed to the vision. These conditions usually arise due to specific medical conditions. Your physician will likely suggest surgery when experiencing vision troubles associated with severe pain and inflammation.
Depending on the optic condition, the physician will either advise the full or partial thickness transplantation. The decision also depends on the part of the cornea that demands the replacement. Medical science advancements have made it possible to approach replacements only for the damaged parts rather than making full-thickness replacement inevitable in all cases.
The full-thickness transplantation is alternatively known as KEROTOPLASTY. The process involves the removal of a circular piece of the damaged cornea, consequently replacing it with the donated one.
In the majority of instances, a cycling cutting tool gets involved in eliminating the damaged cornea. Physicians usually go about putting stitches to hold the new cornea in place. The stitches are usually put along the edges.
The operation usually spans around an hour, and it involves local anesthetic. In such cases, the patient undergoing the operation will not have a vision as the eye temporarily stops working.
If you are undergoing full-thickness corneal transplantation, you will usually need to stay in the Hospital for the night.
The outcome of the latest advancement in medical science makes it possible to replace only the damaged part. However, it is unsuitable for all patients, and the process is more extensive than full-thickness transplantation. The process involves cutting instruments, and in some cases, it involves the application of a laser. Like full-thickness replacement, partial-thickness transplantation is also carried through local anesthesia and usually takes around a couple of hours.
Corneal transplantation can bring improvement to the extent of 70% or even higher.
The probable recovery time depends on the extent of transplantation the patient undergoes. Usually, it takes around 18 months for the full-thickness transplantation to produce a complete result. If one urges for faster results, one should ideally look for contact lenses or spectacles. The partial-replacement features a much shorter time to produce a complete result. In such cases, the result becomes evident within a few weeks.
While running through the recovery time, the patient must take adequate care. One should not rub the eyes and avoid participating in swimming and other full-contact games.
