Overview

Corneal transplantation replaces diseased or damaged corneal tissue to restore clarity and vision in conditions like keratoconus, corneal scarring, and endothelial failure. Selective lamellar techniques (DALK, DSEK, DMEK) preserve healthy tissue and offer faster recovery than full-thickness grafts.

Your case is matched to a centre on the basis of clinical outcome data, not marketing. We coordinate every step — from pre-operative work-up to post-treatment follow-up — with a dedicated care coordinator.

Frequently asked questions

Partner centres source tissue from accredited eye banks adhering to international standards (EBAA/Eye Bank Association equivalent). Tissue availability varies by country — India and Thailand typically have shorter wait times (1–4 weeks for most lamellar procedures). For DALK in keratoconus where the endothelium is preserved, donor tissue requirements are less restrictive and often available sooner. We check tissue availability before scheduling your travel.
