Eye transplant possible?
I had C3R in right eye, after that my vision has become worse with minimum light and doctor said the cornea is clear and there is no haze. So, assumung that it operation was not successful, is there a chance of getting an eye transplant later if contact lenses does not work. Only asking of the possibility of transplant after getting C3R in same eye. Is it medically possible and what are chances of getting lost vision?
For 1-2 months .... vision.may be become Hazy or worse...but subsequently it will be clear..(because it take time to reduce haziness)..
Whole point of doing C3R is to prevent progression of keratoconus and that is achieved via C3R. So don't get worried, it's not failed surgery.
You can get cornea transplant in latter date if you are not happy with Quality of vision.
You won't loose vision
Next Steps
Do regular follow up ...they will add some mild soft steriod drops in latter date to reduce haziness
