Cornea

Best cornea eye hospital in Hyderabad

Like a camera lens, the cornea is the clear, front layer of your eye that helps you enjoy sharp, clear vision. When the cornea becomes damaged, infected, or diseased, it can cause discomfort and significantly impact your sight.

At Elite Eye Hospital, our Cornea Care team is here to help. With expert diagnostics, advanced treatments, and compassionate care, we’re dedicated to protecting your corneal health and keeping your vision crisp and comfortable.
