Cornea Scarring

Cornea Scarring Overview

The cornea’s main function is to focus light on the retina for clear vision. Scarring can limit its ability to focus, resulting in vision complications and/or irritation. Luckily, we have treatments that can improve and preserve your vision. Find out more during your appointment.

How We Treat Cornea Scarring

Corneal scarring is a serious condition that requires an experienced eye care professional’s attention. Schedule an appointment today at one of our partner locations to discuss your options for cornea scarring. 

 

Through an eye exam or corneal topography, your eye doctor can diagnose scarring and work with you to find a solution. Treatments can range from eyeglasses to medical treatments such as PTK (phototherapeutic keratectomy) up to receiving  a cornea transplant. To find out which one is best for your condition—schedule an appointment.
