About the clinic

Corneal transplant is an eye surgery performed at Prof. Dr. Ahmet Satici's Private Practice in Istanbul, Turkey.

About the procedure

A corneal transplant replaces damaged cornea tissue with healthy donor tissue. It treats conditions like keratoconus and corneal diseases. The surgery requires ordering donor cornea tissue beforehand.

Diagnostic preparation

Before surgery, patients undergo comprehensive tests:

  • OCT scan - creates detailed cornea images
  • Slit lamp examination - checks external eye health
  • Pachymetry - measures cornea thickness
  • Refractometry - determines vision prescription

Treatment process

Patients typically stay in Istanbul for 3 weeks. The timeline includes:

  • 1 week waiting for donor cornea
  • Surgery day (2-3 hour procedure)
  • 2 weeks post-op recovery with weekly check-ups

Much better vision
I need to have glasses for reading near-vision. I knew this was coming because of my age, but I was okay before the operation
