External Diseases & Cornea

Hindi: बाहरी नेत्र रोग एवं कॉर्निया
Marathi: बाह्य नेत्ररोग व कॉर्निया

The cornea is the clear front window of the eye, and the ocular surface — the tear film, conjunctiva and eyelids — keeps it healthy and comfortable. Diseases of this region are among the most common reasons people seek eye care, ranging from everyday dryness and infection to sight-threatening corneal disease. At Suraj Eye Institute, our cornea and external disease service offers complete medical and surgical care for these conditions.

Conditions We Treat

Dry eye disease

Grittiness, burning and fluctuating vision — diagnosed and managed at every level of severity.

Conjunctivitis & allergy

Infective and allergic “red eye,” including stubborn and recurrent cases.

Corneal infections & ulcers

Bacterial, viral, fungal and contact-lens-related infections that need prompt treatment.

Keratoconus

Progressive thinning and bulging of the cornea, treated with cross-linking and specialty lenses.

Pterygium

A growth over the cornea from sun and dust exposure, removed surgically when needed.

Corneal scars & dystrophies

Clouding from injury, infection or inherited disease that may need a transplant.

Treatments & Surgery

Our services include medical management of the ocular surface, corneal collagen cross-linking (C3R) to halt keratoconus, corneal transplantation (full-thickness and modern lamellar techniques such as DALK and DSEK/DMEK), pterygium surgery and ocular-surface reconstruction. Many corneal conditions are sight-threatening but highly treatable when seen early.
