Cornea Centre

Protecting the Eye’s Clear Window

Blurred vision that glasses don’t fix, glare at night, a white spot on the eye, or a shape that keeps changing — these are corneal conversations. Dr. Jain’s fellowship training in Cornea & Anterior Segment focuses exactly here.

  • Corneal infection & injury — same-day urgency when warning signs appear
  • Keratoconus — progression monitoring and timely cross-linking
  • Scars & opacities — from medical care to lamellar transplant planning
  • Dry eye & ocular surface — the foundation beneath every surgical plan

Cataract Care

From Foggy to Clear — The Lens-Planning Journey

  1. Consultation & measurements

    Vision testing, eye examination and biometry to calculate lens power precisely.

  2. Lens discussion

    Monofocal, toric, multifocal or EDOF — honest pros and cons for your measurements and lifestyle.

  3. Surgery when indicated

    Small-incision phacoemulsification, typically 10–20 minutes, usually anaesthesia by drops.

  4. Recovery & follow-up

    Rapid visual improvement with structured drops and reviews; final glasses after stabilisation.

Vision Correction

LASIK, SMILE, PRK or ICL?

A neutral comparison — because the right question is not “which is best” but “which may be suitable for your eyes”.

LASIK procedure illustration

LASIK

How it worksThin corneal flap lifted; excimer laser reshapes the bed; flap repositioned
RecoveryFastest — useful vision within hours, most routine activity in 1–2 days
ConsiderationsNeeds adequate corneal thickness; flap considerations for contact sports

Suited to a wide range of myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism within measured limits. Suitability only after full evaluation.

SMILE procedure illustration

SMILE

How it worksFemtosecond laser creates a lenticule inside the cornea, removed via a 2–3 mm incision
RecoveryRapid — most functional within 1–3 days
ConsiderationsFlap-free; mainly for myopia and astigmatism within its range

A keyhole alternative for active lifestyles where corneal stability is prized.

PRK surface laser illustration

PRK / TransPRK

How it worksSurface epithelium removed; excimer laser reshapes directly — no flap, ever
RecoverySlowest of the lasers — best vision develops over 2–4 weeks
ConsiderationsIdeal for thin corneas and flap-risk professions; conserves the most tissue

The road is longer; the destination is comparable for suitable eyes.

ICL implantable lens illustration

ICL (Implantable Lens)

How it worksA biocompatible lens is placed inside the eye, behind the iris — cornea untouched
RecoveryDramatic improvement by next morning for most patients
ConsiderationsFor high powers or thin corneas; an internal procedure needing lifelong annual reviews

The additive answer when corneal laser is not the safe one.

Important: This tool does not recommend a procedure. Which option — if any — may be suitable depends on age, prescription stability, corneal measurements, tear film, ocular health and surgeon evaluation. Some patients are advised to wait or decline.
