Common Corneal Conditions We Treat

Our Cornea and External Eye Disease team specializes in diagnosing and managing a wide range of conditions, including:

Keratoconus – Progressive thinning of the cornea that causes distorted or blurred vision.
Corneal ulcers or infections – Often resulting from injury, contact lens use, or microbial invasion.
Corneal dystrophies – Genetic disorders leading to clouding, swelling, or scarring of the cornea.
Corneal scars – From trauma, previous surgery, or inflammation.
Dry eye–related surface damage – Causing irritation, discomfort, and fluctuating vision.

Each case is evaluated thoroughly to ensure precise diagnosis and effective, individualized care.

FAQs

Will the cornea heal itself?

In some cases, minor corneal scratches or injuries can heal naturally within a few days. However, deeper corneal damage may lead to infection or vision loss if left untreated. At Dada Laser Eye Institute, Pune, our specialists use advanced diagnostic tools and protective treatments to help the cornea heal safely and restore clear vision quickly.

Why is a cornea transplant needed?

A cornea transplant is required when the cornea becomes scarred, swollen, or cloudy, preventing light from entering the eye properly. At Dada Laser Eye Institute, our experienced surgeon Dr. Jeevan Ladi performs precise corneal transplants and lamellar procedures using the latest technology to restore sight with minimal discomfort and fast recovery.

Where is the cornea located in the eye?

The cornea is the transparent, dome-shaped front layer of your eye that covers the iris and pupil. It plays a vital role in focusing light and protecting the inner eye. At Dada Laser Eye Institute, we specialize in diagnosing and treating all types of corneal disorders, ensuring patients regain sharp and stable vision.

Are the cornea and sclera the same thing?

No — the cornea and sclera are two distinct parts of the eye. The cornea is the clear front surface that lets light in. The sclera is the white, protective outer layer surrounding the rest of the eye.
