Dr. Makris Answers Your Questions

My father has been diagnosed with keratoconus. His ophthalmologist is recommending a comeal transplant. Will you tell me more about this? Keratoconus is an eye condition in which the cornea (the transparent outer portion of the eye that transmits light to the retina) becomes distorted from its usual round shape, resulting in significant visual impairment. This disease affects one out of every 2,000 persons in the general population. Of these cases, approximately 20% are candidates for corneal transplants. The success rate of comeal transplants in people with keratoconus is 95%. During a comeal transplant, the damaged cornea is replaced with a donated human cornea; while the patient is under local anesthesia. Most patients experience very little pain or discomfort following the transplant.

For information on various eye conditions, as well as information on the latest advancements in surgical techniques, tune in Dr. Makris’ weekly television show. “You and Your Eyes”, on Muncie Public Access Channel 42, Sundays at 6:00 PM and Wednesdays at 4:00 PM.
