  1. What Are My Cornea Treatment Oklahoma Options? If you are experiencing vision issues due to affected corneas, your eye doctor will likely recommend a cornea treatment Oklahoma. Because there are different conditions that affect the corneas, the ideal treatment will vary from patient to patient. As such, here are some common conditions and the treatments that can help resolve them. Eye Care OKC Essentials: Understanding Cornea Conditions Your cornea is the dome-shaped, clear outer layer of your eye. Through this, your eyes are able to focus light, allowing you to see clearly. Maintaining this part of your eye health is essential, so it helps to stay aware of possible conditions that could affect it. Two things to know about are general cornea damage and keratoconus. Cornea Damage Your corneas may become damaged due to disease, injury, infection, or even a previous eye surgery. When this occurs, the light rays that enter your eyes are distorted, leading to blurry vision. With lower severity, this may heal naturally. Keratoconus Also known as “KC,” keratoconus is a non-inflammatory condition that thins and weakens the corneas, leading to a cone-like bulge and optical irregularity. The resulting blurriness, distortion, and visual “static” can cause significant impairment. Safe and Effective Cornea Treatment Oklahoma Options Corneal Cross-Linking If your vision issues are due to weakened corneas, your cornea doctors Oklahoma may recommend corneal cross-linking. This minimally invasive outpatient procedure uses UVA light and riboflavin eyedrops to create new bonds between collagen fibers, thus stiffening the corneas and limiting the progression of disease.

  2. Corneal Transplant When a cornea is severely damaged beyond repair, the best eye care OKC solution could be a corneal transplant.
