Keratoplasty, also known as corneal transplant surgery, is a procedure where a damaged or diseased cornea is replaced with a healthy donor cornea. The surgery aims to restore clear vision and alleviate issues such as corneal scarring, thinning, or distortion. During the surgery, the surgeon removes a portion or the entire cornea and replaces it with a donor cornea, which is carefully matched to the recipient's eye. Keratoplasty is often used to treat conditions like keratoconus, corneal infections, or corneal injuries. The success of the surgery depends on various factors, including the specific condition being treated and the overall health of the patient's eye. Post-operative care is essential for a successful recovery.
