Corneal Transplantation

Corneal transplant surgery is done without waiting lists, 365 days a year. 

We are the only clinic in Croatia and among the few in the world using both the conventional DSAEK and improved method UT-DSAEK for endothelial lamellar transplantation.

The most modern method, lamellar transplantation (DSAEK and UT-DSAEK)  was performed for the first time in Croatia and the whole of South East Europe in the clinic Svjetlost. The clinic today is an internationally recognized transplant center to which 40% of the patients come from abroad. The clinic Svjetlost applies an individual approach to all patients when it comes to choosing the most suitable donor tissue. Our graft survival rate is 95% in low-risk patients and 70% in high-risk patients.
