Keratectomy is a surgical procedure involving the removal of a portion of the cornea, the clear, dome-shaped front surface of the eye. This procedure is performed to treat various corneal conditions, including corneal ulcers, pterygium (a growth of tissue on the conjunctiva that can extend onto the cornea), or to remove abnormal tissue from the corneal surface. Keratectomy can also be used to correct refractive errors, such as myopia (nearsightedness) or astigmatism, through techniques like photorefractive keratectomy (PRK), where the corneal surface is reshaped with a laser. The procedure can be performed using traditional surgical methods or with advanced laser technology. During the surgery, the affected area of the cornea is carefully removed to restore normal corneal structure and function. For conditions such as corneal ulcers or pterygium, the removal of damaged or abnormal tissue helps to promote healing and improve vision. In refractive surgery, the cornea is reshaped to correct visual impairments. Complications of keratectomy can include infection, bleeding, and postoperative pain. There may also be risks of visual disturbances, such as glare, halos, or decreased vision, particularly if the cornea does not heal properly. In some cases, complications may arise from the healing process, such as corneal scarring or irregularities that can affect vision. Patients typically require a period of recovery with close monitoring by an eye specialist, and they may need to use medications such as antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drops to support healing. Despite these risks, keratectomy can significantly improve vision and address serious corneal conditions when performed appropriately.
