FAQ's Related to Ophthalmologist

PKP (Penetrating Keratoplasty) is a full-thickness corneal transplant, while DALK (Deep Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty) replaces only the damaged front layers of the cornea.

Common symptoms include blurred vision, glare sensitivity, difficulty seeing at night, faded colors, and frequent changes in eyeglass prescriptions.

Keratoconus, corneal scarring, corneal dystrophies, severe infections, and corneal injuries may require transplantation.

Yes. Serious eye injuries can damage the cornea, lens, or other eye structures, making early specialist treatment essential.
