Kenia Eye Hospital is one of Mumbai's most trusted centres for cornea treatment, offering advanced medical care and surgical options for a wide range of corneal conditions. As a HOTA-approved centre for corneal transplants and the first in Asia to perform laser corneal transplants using the FEMTO Z8 NEO, our cornea specialists deliver world-class care for keratoconus, corneal scars, infections, dystrophies, and post-transplant complications. Backed by 26 years of clinical legacy since 1998 and led by Dr. Vaishal Kenia, an internationally trained cornea and transplant surgeon, Kenia Eye Hospital provides comprehensive cornea care tailored to your specific condition.
At Kenia Eye Hospital, cornea treatment is more than just prescribing medication or performing surgery. It is a full-spectrum diagnostic and therapeutic journey, built on advanced corneal imaging, personalised treatment planning, and internationally trained expertise. Every cornea patient is evaluated using a comprehensive diagnostic suite including Pentacam HR, Anterion, Corvis ST, and Specular Microscopy, ensuring the affected corneal layer and disease stage are precisely identified before treatment.
We offer the complete cornea care portfolio, from medical management of dry eye and infections to lamellar and full-thickness corneal transplants (DSEK, DMEK, PK), corneal collagen cross-linking (C3R), pterygium surgery, and amniotic membrane transplantation. Dr. Vaishal Kenia, our lead cornea surgeon, was internationally trained under Prof. H. R. Koch in Germany and has been performing advanced corneal transplants for over two decades, making Kenia one of the most established cornea centres in Mumbai.
The cornea is the clear, dome-shaped front layer of the eye that focuses light onto the retina and provides most of the eye's focusing power. When the cornea becomes damaged, thinned, infected, scarred, or clouded, vision can drop significantly, and the eye becomes vulnerable to further complications.
Cornea treatment refers to the full range of medical, laser, and surgical procedures used to preserve, restore, or replace the cornea. Depending on the condition, treatment can range from prescription eye drops and specialty contact lenses to advanced procedures like corneal collagen cross-linking, lamellar transplants (DSEK, DMEK), or full-thickness transplants (PK). Modern cornea surgery at Kenia is minimally invasive, precisely planned with 3D corneal imaging, and designed to preserve as much healthy tissue as possible.

Conditions We Treat
If you notice two or more of these symptoms, schedule a cornea evaluation with our specialists as soon as possible.
We offer the full spectrum of cornea care, from advanced diagnostics to complex transplant surgery, matched to your condition and vision needs.
The most refined partial-thickness corneal transplant, where only the inner endothelial layer is replaced. Offers the fastest visual recovery, best visual outcomes, and lowest rejection rates. Ideal for Fuchs' dystrophy and corneal edema.
A lamellar corneal transplant that replaces the damaged endothelial layer through a small incision. Faster recovery than full-thickness transplants, with fewer sutures and improved safety.
A full-thickness corneal transplant used when the entire cornea is damaged. Recommended for severe corneal scarring, advanced keratoconus, perforations, and failed previous grafts.
A partial-thickness transplant that preserves the healthy inner corneal layer. Ideal for keratoconus and anterior corneal scars, with a lower risk of graft rejection.
Kenia Eye Hospital was the first centre in Asia to perform laser corneal transplants using the FEMTO Z8 NEO femtosecond laser. This bladeless approach delivers unmatched precision in corneal shaping, faster healing, and superior graft alignment.
Your cornea treatment journey at Kenia is structured into six clear steps, from diagnosis to recovery.

DSEK, DMEK, DALK, PK, and laser-assisted transplants, all performed with lamellar precision to reduce rejection risk and speed up visual recovery.
Every cornea patient benefits from Pentacam HR corneal topography, Specular Microscopy for endothelial evaluation, Anterion 3D anterior segment imaging, and Corvis ST biomechanical analysis.
From dry eye and keratoconus to complex re-grafts and post-LASIK ectasia, every cornea sub-specialty is handled in a NABH-accredited multi-superspeciality eye hospital in Mumbai.
