Corneal transplantation

Corneal transplantation, or keratoplasty, is a microsurgical procedure that involves replacing a pathological section of the cornea with a donor graft.

The success of corneal transplantation depends on multiple factors, including the absence of blood vessels in the affected area and the effectiveness of glucocorticosteroids used to minimize rejection. The long-term favorable outcome of keratoplasty reaches 90%.

Procedure features in leading global clinics

Top ophthalmologists use a unique method of isolated Descemet’s membrane transplantation (DMEK). This technique has the lowest rate of graft rejection and the highest visual acuity outcomes after surgery.

Extensive practical experience of surgeons, combined with the advanced equipment of European clinics, allows for the performance of complex ocular microsurgeries even in young children.
