About Full-Thickness Penetrating Keratoplasty (Corneal Transplant)

(Ophthalmology)

Full-thickness penetrating keratoplasty replaces a damaged or opaque cornea with a healthy donor cornea to improve vision or treat severe corneal disease. Healic evaluates corneal clarity, infection status, eye pressure and retina health before transplant planning and long-term graft follow-up.

Patients commonly visit for severe corneal opacity or white scar, poor vision not corrected by glasses, painful or infected corneal ulcer scar. Our ophthalmology team checks causes such as keratoconus (progressive thinning of the cornea), corneal scarring from infections, corneal dystrophies (like fuchs' dystrophy) and explains suitable options including penetrating keratoplasty (pkp), lamellar keratoplasty (dalk / dsaek / dmek) with transparent pricing and follow-up support.
