Cornea


Total Votes: 9 / Interest: 234

As ophthalmologists, we understand that keep the cornea and lens smooth and clear is integral to maintaining great vision. Obstruction from a cornea scar, corneal edema, dislocated lens or cataract can preclude the light from reaching the retina in an even fashion resulting in blurry vision. In those instances, a cornea surgeon can help by correcting the anatomic deformity. Corneal transplant and cataract surgery are two of the most common procedures performed by a cornea surgeon. LASIK, removal of pterygiums or ocular surface cancer, minimally invasive glaucoma surgery, lens exchanges, and iris defect repair are also very commonly performed by a cornea surgeon.
