KERATOPLASTY

A surgical procedure to replace a damaged cornea with a healthy one from a donor's eye. Unlike transplantation of most another organs, the cornea tends to have a problem with transplant rejection. Corneal transplants are indicated in cases of severe corneal injury or corneal infection (corneal ulcer) which has left the cornea scarred.
