Corneo Clinic
At Arunodaya Eye Clinic, we specialize in providing exceptional care for corneal conditions and diseases. We are committed to preserving and restoring the health of your cornea, ensuring optimal vision and eye comfort.
Understanding the Cornea:
The cornea is the clear, dome-shaped outermost layer of the eye that covers the iris and pupil. It plays a vital role in focusing incoming light onto the retina, enabling clear vision. Various conditions and diseases can affect the cornea, including corneal infections, corneal dystrophies, corneal ulcers, corneal scars, keratoconus, and corneal trauma.
Our Expertise and Services:
- Comprehensive Corneal Examinations: Our cornea specialists utilize advanced diagnostic techniques to evaluate the health and integrity of your cornea. Through a detailed examination, including corneal topography, pachymetry, and slit-lamp biomicroscopy, we can accurately diagnose and assess the extent of corneal conditions or diseases.
- Corneal Transplantation: When corneal diseases or conditions cannot be managed effectively with conservative treatments, corneal transplantation may be recommended. Our experienced ophthalmologists perform various types of corneal transplantation, including full-thickness penetrating keratoplasty and partial-thickness procedures such as Descemet's stripping endothelial keratoplasty (DSEK) or Descemet's membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK). We strive to provide the best surgical outcomes and long-term corneal health for our patients.
- Corneal Cross-Linking (CXL): Corneal cross-linking is a non-invasive procedure that strengthens the cornea and slows the progression of keratoconus, a condition characterized by corneal thinning and bulging. Our clinic offers both standard and accelerated CXL techniques, using riboflavin eye drops and ultraviolet (UV) light to enhance corneal stability and preserve vision.
- Dry Eye Management: Dry eye syndrome can affect the health and clarity of the cornea. Our team provides comprehensive evaluation and personalized treatment plans for dry eye management, including prescription medications, artificial tears, lifestyle modifications, and advanced therapies such as punctal plugs, meibomian gland expression, and amniotic membrane transplantation.
- Contact Lens Services: We offer specialized contact lens fittings for patients with corneal irregularities, including keratoconus and corneal scars. Our cornea specialists are skilled in fitting gas-permeable lenses, scleral lenses, and other specialty lenses to provide improved vision and comfort for individuals with corneal conditions.
- Corneal Infection Management: Corneal infections, such as bacterial, viral, or fungal keratitis, require prompt diagnosis and aggressive treatment. Our cornea specialists have extensive experience in managing corneal infections and will develop a tailored treatment plan, which may include topical and/or oral medications, to effectively eradicate the infection and promote corneal healing.
Patient-Centered Approach:
At Arunodaya Eye Clinic, we prioritize patient-centered care, ensuring that you receive compassionate and individualized attention throughout your corneal treatment journey. Our team takes the time to thoroughly explain your condition, treatment options, and any potential risks or benefits involved. We strive to empower you to make informed decisions about your eye health and work collaboratively to achieve the best possible outcomes.
