Corneal Scar Treatment

A corneal scar is any abnormality in the naturally transparent lens of the cornea. Such abnormalities can inhibit the cornea’s ability to bend and focus light properly. Though not all scars cause loss of or damage to vision, those that do can bring about considerable vision loss. Fortunately, there are treatment options available today for most corneal scarring. If the scarring is minimal, eyeglasses may be the solution. However, for more severe scars, rigid gas permeable or scleral contact lenses can be used to provide a smooth surface to the cornea. If contacts fail to improve vision, a transplant of healthy, donated corneal tissue may be the only option for healthy eyesight.

If you think you may be suffering from corneal scarring, the ophthalmology team at SIGHTMD NEW JERSEY SUSSKIND & ALMALLAH EYE ASSOCIATES is here to help. Our expert physicians care about keeping your eyes healthy and your vision clear. We are highly skilled and have a wealth of world-renowned knowledge, experience, and innovation to deliver the finest in complete eye care with a caring and compassionate touch. To schedule an exam, please call 732-349-5622. We offer evening hours most nights of the week.

P.S. It may be possible to remove shallow corneal scars with laser surgery.
