Choosing the right eye care centre can be a crucial decision, especially when dealing with serious conditions affecting your vision. At Healing Touch Eye Centre, we ensure:
The cornea is the transparent front layer of the eye that plays a critical role in focusing your vision. Acting as the eye's window, the cornea allows light to enter and reach the retina, making it essential for clear vision. When the cornea is damaged or diseased, it can lead to blurry vision, discomfort, or even severe vision loss.

Keratitis is an inflammation of the cornea, often caused by bacterial, viral, or fungal infections. It can result in pain, redness, and vision loss if left untreated. Contact lens wearers are especially prone to keratitis due to improper lens care.
Symptoms: Redness, pain, blurred vision, discharge, sensitivity to light.
Treatment: Antimicrobial eye drops, oral medication, or in severe cases, corneal transplantation.
A corneal abrasion occurs when the surface of the cornea is scratched or damaged, which can lead to pain, tearing, and blurred vision. Over time, if the injury does not heal properly, it can result in scarring that affects vision.
Symptoms: Gritty feeling in the eye, redness, excessive tearing.
Treatment: Lubricating eye drops, antibiotics, and, in severe cases, surgical intervention.
Keratoconus is a progressive eye condition where the cornea thins and bulges outward, forming a cone shape. This leads to distorted vision and can require specialized care.
Symptoms: Blurred or distorted vision, sensitivity to light, difficulty seeing at night.
Treatment: Specialized contact lenses, corneal cross-linking, or corneal transplant in advanced cases.
Fuchs' dystrophy is a genetic condition where the cornea’s inner layer gradually deteriorates, causing swelling and clouding of vision. It typically affects older adults and worsens over time.
Symptoms: Hazy or blurred vision, sensitivity to light, difficulty seeing in the morning.
Treatment: Medicated eye drops, corneal transplants, or endothelial keratoplasty (a form of partial-thickness corneal transplant).
A corneal ulcer is an open sore on the cornea that can result from infections, dry eye, or trauma. If left untreated, it can lead to severe vision impairment or even blindness.
Symptoms: Redness, pain, tearing, discharge, blurred vision.
Treatment: Antiviral, antibacterial, or antifungal medications, depending on the cause. In severe cases, corneal transplantation may be required.
At Healing Touch Eye Centre, our team of highly skilled cornea specialists is committed to offering the best treatment options available. Our comprehensive approach includes:
For patients with severe corneal damage, a corneal transplant may be the best option. We offer the latest techniques, including:
For patients with keratoconus, corneal collagen cross-linking is a non-invasive procedure that strengthens the corneal tissue to halt the progression of the disease. This treatment can prevent the need for a corneal transplant in many cases.
These minimally invasive surgeries are types of endothelial keratoplasty and are used to treat conditions like Fuchs' dystrophy. They involve replacing only the innermost layer of the cornea, leading to faster recovery times and fewer complications compared to traditional corneal transplants.
At Healing Touch Eye Centre, we offer LASIK and other laser-assisted surgeries for corneal reshaping. These are often used to treat refractive errors like nearsightedness and astigmatism, as well as to correct certain corneal conditions.
