Vision correction has come a long way in recent years, with a variety of options available for people seeking to improve their eyesight. For those with thin corneas or presbyopia, traditional methods like glasses and contact lenses may not always be the best choice. In these cases, implantable contact lenses (ICLs) offer a groundbreaking solution. […]

The cornea is one of the most essential parts of the eye, playing a significant role in focusing light onto the retina and enabling clear vision. However, conditions such as corneal scarring, trauma or certain eye diseases can lead to a degradation of the cornea’s transparency and structure. When the scarring or damage affects the […]

Corneal diseases and injuries can significantly affect a person’s vision and when conventional treatments fail, corneal transplants become a vital option for restoring sight. As the medical field continues to advance, researchers have discovered the critical role of corneal stem cells in improving the outcomes of corneal transplant surgery and enhancing the healing process. These […]

High myopia or severe nearsightedness, requires precise and safe vision correction techniques. While LASIK and standard PRK surgery have been widely used, they may not always be the best option for individuals with extreme myopia. This is where Transepithelial PRK eye surgery stands out as a superior and safer alternative. Unlike traditional PRK laser eye […]

Pellucid Marginal Degeneration is a rare but progressive eye condition that affects the cornea, leading to a thinning and distortion of the corneal structure. This condition can cause severe visual impairment, often requiring advanced treatments. However, corneal crosslinking has emerged as a groundbreaking treatment, offering hope for patients suffering from corneal degeneration, including pellucid marginal […]

Corneal endothelial dysfunction is a condition that affects the innermost layer of the cornea, the endothelial cells, which are crucial for maintaining the cornea’s clarity and transparency. When this layer becomes damaged or dysfunctional, it leads to fluid buildup, corneal swelling and significant vision impairment. One of the most effective treatments for this condition is […]

Corneal diseases and injuries can have a profound impact on vision, with corneal transplants often being the most effective solution to restore sight. However, traditional transplants, which rely on donor tissue, have their challenges, including long waiting lists, the risk of rejection and complications related to tissue compatibility. This is where synthetic corneal transplants offer […]

Laser Refractive Surgery has transformed vision correction, allowing individuals to achieve clear vision without relying on glasses or contact lenses. While these procedures successfully correct refractive errors such as myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism, also they can sometimes affect contrast sensitivity, an important aspect of visual function. Contrast sensitivity refers to the ability to distinguish objects […]

Corneal transplant surgery is a critical procedure that restores vision in patients suffering from corneal diseases, injuries and degenerative conditions. It involves replacing damaged corneal tissue with healthy donor tissue. Despite advancements in surgical techniques, challenges such as donor shortages and graft failures continue to impact access to effective treatment. This article explores the shortage […]

Laser Refractive Eye Surgery has revolutionized vision correction, allowing individuals to reduce or eliminate their dependence on glasses and contact lenses. It corrects common refractive errors such as near-sightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism by reshaping the cornea using advanced laser technology. Despite the high success rates of Laser Refractive Eye Surgery, some patients experience unwanted visual […]
