### Cornea Service

The cornea is the transparent, dome-shaped surface that covers the front of the eye. It plays a crucial role in vision by providing approximately two-thirds of the eye’s focusing power. Not only does it allow light to enter the eye, but it also acts as a protective barrier against dust, germs, and environmental pollutants.

At Klariti Eye Care Hospital, our Cornea Services provide expert medical and surgical treatment for a wide range of corneal and external eye disorders, including anterior segment conditions. This service is led by a specialized corneal ophthalmologist, trained in handling complex corneal diseases with precision and compassion.

We also diagnose and treat Ocular Surface Disorders (OSD), which can cause symptoms ranging from eye irritation and redness to significantly reduced vision in advanced stages.

Corneal blindness affects approximately 1.3 million people worldwide. Unfortunately, the demand for corneal transplants far exceeds the supply. A single donor’s eye donation can restore sight to up to four people, offering them a chance to see the world again. Anyone can pledge to donate eyes—age, caste, religion, or medical history (such as wearing spectacles, having diabetes, hypertension, or past cataract surgeries) are not barriers to donation.
