CORNEA SURGERY

Includes refractive surgery with excimer laser (PRK and LASIK) to correct myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism, and therapeutic surgery to correct Keratoconus and for undergoing corneal transplants.

DEFECTS OF REFRACTION

The defects of refraction are those in which the image, which reaches the retina through the cornea and the lens, converges at a point outside it. In a normal eye (emmetrope), the images sent by the cornea and the lens to retina focus directly on it, obtaining a perfect vision of the object on which we have placed our vision. When this does not occur and the image converges at a point outside the retina, this is a defect of refraction, which can be any of the following:
