Cornea

In the intricate landscape of eye health, the cornea takes centre stage as the transparent, protective outer layer of your eye. At Al Salama Eye Hospital, we recognize the paramount importance of your cornea in ensuring clear vision and overall eye health. Join us in exploring the world of corneal care, where precision and expertise intersect. The cornea plays a vital role in refracting light and directing it onto the retina, allowing you to see the world around you. However, various conditions can affect the cornea, jeopardizing your vision and comfort. At Al Salama, we are committed to preserving the clarity and health of your cornea through advanced diagnostics and cutting-edge treatments. Step into the world of Al Salama, where we nurture your corneal health, one clear vision at a time.
