What is Keratoprosthesis?

Keratoprosthesis is a surgery where a damaged cornea is replaced with an artificial one. This is usually done if previous cornea transplants have failed. Unlike traditional transplants that use donor corneas, this procedure uses an artificial cornea made of clear plastic that the body accepts well and provides good vision. It’s used to restore sight in cases of severe damage from birth defects, infections, injuries, or burns. This method is often chosen when traditional cornea transplants are unlikely to work due to conditions like multiple graft failures or severe eye diseases.

Who needs an artificial cornea?

 

An artificial cornea can help restore vision for people who can’t get a corneal transplant from a human donor. While human cornea transplants have become much more successful over the years, they don’t always work for everyone. An artificial cornea is a great option for people with corneal blindness who can’t use human tissue or who live in places where corneal tissue is hard to find.

Is an artificial cornea suitable for everyone?

No, it’s specifically for those who cannot use human donor corneas.

 

How long does the surgery take?

The procedure usually takes about 1 to 2 hours.

 

How does an artificial cornea work?

It restores vision by replacing the damaged cornea with a clear, artificial one.

 

What materials are used for artificial corneas?

They are typically made of clear plastic or other biocompatible materials.

 

What conditions can be treated with an artificial cornea?

Severe corneal damage, blindness, or rejection of human tissue.

Are follow-up visits required?

Yes, regular check-ups are necessary to monitor the cornea and eye health.

 

Can an artificial cornea improve vision?

Yes, it can restore vision for many people with severe corneal damage.

 

What should patients expect during recovery?

Patients may experience some discomfort and need to follow specific care instructions to ensure healing.

My Approach

1. Whether the patient really need cornea transplant or not. Although cornea transplant is most successful transplant in human body. Still transplant is transplant. If not that much necessary we will not do transplant.

2. If it really needed then we will see which technique is most appropriate for that patient. It is not a blanket that every cornea patient need same technique. So cornea transplant technique very from one patient to another. We see what is disease, type of transplant needed which technique will give highest success rate like 90% to 95%.

3. Follow Up : we have developed a strong follow up system. We take regular follow ups. So that rejection chances or infection chances are minimum.

I think how in compassionate manner I can treat this patients. I think like this is my family member and how I can treat my family member in best possible way.

Keratoplasty Failure?

Corneal diseases are a major cause of blindness, with around 10 million people worldwide having vision loss due to corneal problems. While corneal transplants work well for many people, they often fail for those with complex issues like repeated infections, glaucoma, or new blood vessels in the eye. Additionally, there aren’t enough donor corneas to meet the demand, especially in poorer countries. Because of this, artificial and bio-mimetic corneas are being explored as alternatives for those who have difficulty with traditional corneal transplants.
