Artemis Hospitals
Keratoplasty, or corneal transplant surgery, is conducted at the Organ Transplant Center of Artemis Hospital. Surgeons of the Center treat keratoconus, eye injuries, ulcers, corneal scarring with the help of corneal replacement.
The procedure lasts for 1-2 hours. A patient returns to the normal activity in 1-2 weeks after the surgery.
Artemis Clinic is among top corneal transplant hospitals in India to perform Descemet's Stripping Endothelial Keratoplasty (DSEK). The surgery is minimally invasive. Surgeons apply 1-2 sutures. The recovery period after DSEK is shorter than after the traditional corneal transplant.
The Center includes the Eye Bank where experts collect eyes from the donors and prepare the tissues for use.
