Cornea services
The cornea is the clear window at the front of the eye and plays a vital role in vision, essential for maintaining a clear and sharp image. However, the cornea can be affected by various conditions, including inflammatory diseases, infections, and shape disorders such as keratoconus.
General Ophthalmology
General ophthalmology focuses on common eye conditions such as chalazion, dry eye, blepharitis, conjunctivitis, and eye infections. Ophthalmologists conduct comprehensive eye exams and offer treatments to manage these issues, supporting eye health for all ages.
