Cornea Transplant Hospitals In Bangalore
Corneal Transplant Surgery
The cornea is the tissue on the very front of the eye. It is clear and covers the iris and pupil. It works with the lens to provide focusing power to the eye.
If the cornea becomes opaque, swollen, or scarred, vision is compromised. Medication to control the damage to the cornea is usually the first line of treatment, but once it is clear that medication will not halt or alter the damage, a corneal transplant is considered. This surgical procedure involves the removal of the damaged tissue and replacement with a healthy, donated human cornea…..
What are the most common benefits of this surgery ?
The transplanted tissue will enable the patient to regain much of the eyesight lost by the condition which damaged the patient’s own cornea. The surgery can also eliminate symptoms due to the corneal condition. Because this procedure is performed only after medicines and other treatments have failed, it is the final method of providing relatively normal eyesight to someone having serious vision problems due to damage to their cornea…..
How is the procedure performed ?
The transplant procedure involves removing the diseased or damaged tissue, then replacing it with the donor tissue. The entire operation is done under a surgical microscope. After taking measurements of the amount of tissue to be removed, the diseased corneal is cut and lifted away from the eye with a special round tool that works much like a cookie cutter called a trephine……

Thank’s Paul, Nigel and Derek.
It’s strange listening to Paul Eddington talking about hospitals. About 16 or 17 years after this episode was aired, Eddington died of skin cancer in 1999.
The sad thing is that much of what you see in “Yes, Minister” and “Yes, Prime Minister” actually happened. Something like this, for instance, actually did happen. That’s one of the reasons I adore this show. So much of it is based in reality but it has absolutely brilliant humor.
This actually happened in Peru, a brand new hospital was inaugurated,by the President himself, a year ago with much fanfare. It turned out the patients and medical staff were just for propaganda purposes, and it had no actual patients nor medical staff to speak of. Being still a backwater country with a messy political system, this did no surprise most peruvians.

It’s rapidfire comedy at its best
This show aired about 25 years ago. In 2010, we have the hugely expensive John Murtha airport in PA that serves a only handful passengers a day. And who can forget the nearly-approved $200 million “bridge to nowhere” in Alaska? This show is as relevant today as it was in the early 80s.
I’m not sure how many of you know this, but after this episode was broadcast, the writers received an anonymous tip-off from Whitehall that the ‘empty hospital’ scenario was very close to the bone! Apparently at least one inner-city hospital was fully staffed but without any patients for several months!

How annoying? In the original episode Sir Humphry makes the case that the ‘empty hospital’ is the most efficient hospital in the UK. A great example of government double think. Really wish this clip would inlcude Humpy’s response.
Too bad i can’t understand their fast english
I wish someone added subtitles
@svrljig NO, it definitely can’t be considered normal, nevertheless it happens still and people from the goverment don’t do anything with it. After all hospitals are public domain, aren’t they?
@skristoferu
If I may be so indiscreet to ask what exactely did you do? It sounds odd that this thing can be considered normal – well, perhaps not.
Welcome to the future of American health care!
I worked for a County government in the USA for ten years. It ran 100% like this show.
That is why I watch this show & its sister show, Yes Prime Minister over & over. It is so factual.
I think one of the reasons this show was so popular is that people suspected that much of it was actually true. And, indeed, a lot of it did turn out to be.
As they say, all comedy is based on reality
You know it turned out that there were realy hospitals in the UK with the same problem during the 70s.
