Allograft Corneal Inlay, one of the effective approaches in the treatment of near vision problems, has started to attract the attention of patients who want to say goodbye to their glasses. There are many points that are curious about the treatment, which is slowly becoming widespread in our country. With our blog content, we will try to explain exactly what the treatment does and what advantages it offers. So let’s first take a look at what this treatment is.
What is the Treatment Called Allograft Corneal Inlay?
Allograft Corneal Inlay, which is especially preferred in the treatment of presbyopia, is an effective treatment method based on an implant placed inside the eye. In the method, Inlay tissue is placed in a pocket formed on the patient’s cornea and in this way, the patient’s visual impairment is minimized and the quality of vision is improved.
In this way, the need for glasses and contact lenses, especially for presbyopia patients, is either completely eliminated or minimized.
What Advantages Does Allograft Corneal Inlay Offer?
When we talk about the advantages of treatment in bullet points, you will have a clearer understanding of exactly what it means.
In a Completely Biological Structure
In Allograft Corneal Inlay treatment, the tissue placed in the cornea is a completely organic tissue. Since it is a biologically recyclable material, it fits the eye perfectly and minimizes the risk of complications compared to artificial materials.
No intervention is made to the lens of the eye
The natural lens or eye tissues are not altered during the procedure. The fact that no changes are made to the eye tissues will have the effect of accelerating the healing process. It should also be noted that no tissue is removed from the eye.
A Reversible Procedure
Inlay is placed through a pocket opened in the cornea and it is also possible to remove this implant if necessary. Being a reversible procedure provides a great advantage.
It is performed under local anesthesia and the procedure is short
Only the use of drip anesthesia will be sufficient. In addition, the operation is a short operation of 5-6 minutes, allowing the patient to recover faster.
Recovery Times are Shorter than Expected
After all, since a surgical intervention is performed, it may be thought that recovery times are very long. However, if we make a general evaluation, we can say that the recovery times are much shorter and the patient can return to his daily life in a very short time.
