Corneal Incision Techniques

Corneal incision techniques refer to various surgical methods used to create cuts in the cornea, the clear front surface of the eye. These techniques are essential for procedures like cataract surgery and corneal transplants. Surgeons use precise tools to make manual or laser incisions, which help remove cloudy lenses or reshape the cornea for improved vision. The choice of technique depends on the specific eye condition and surgical goals, ensuring minimal discomfort and optimal healing. The aim is to restore or enhance vision while preserving as much of the eye's natural structure as possible.
