Cornea
Advanced Care for Corneal Diseases & Clear Vision
The cornea is the clear, front layer of the eye that plays a vital role in focusing vision. Any damage or disease affecting the cornea can lead to blurred vision, pain, and even vision loss if not treated on time. At Netram Eye Hospital, Nashik, we offer comprehensive diagnosis and advanced treatment for corneal conditions to restore eye health and visual clarity.
What Is the Cornea?
The cornea is a transparent dome-shaped surface that covers the front of the eye. It protects the eye from dust, germs, and injury while helping to focus light onto the retina. Healthy cornea is essential for clear vision.
Common Corneal Conditions We Treat
- Corneal infections (bacterial, viral, fungal)
- Corneal ulcers
- Keratoconus
- Corneal opacity or scarring
- Dry eye related corneal problems
Common symptoms include eye redness, pain, blurred vision, watering, sensitivity to light, foreign body sensation, and discharge. Any of these symptoms should be evaluated by an eye specialist immediately.
Yes. Corneal infections can progress rapidly and may cause corneal scarring or permanent vision loss if not treated early. Prompt diagnosis and treatment are essential.
Keratoconus is a condition where the cornea becomes thin and cone-shaped, leading to distorted vision. Treatment includes glasses, special contact lenses, Corneal Collagen Cross-Linking (C3R), and in advanced cases, corneal transplantation.
