The cornea is a crucial part of the eye, ensuring clear vision and protecting the inner structures. Any damage or disease affecting the cornea can lead to serious vision problems. At LJ Eye Institute, Patiala, expert care and advanced treatment options are available to restore and maintain corneal health.
