“Now I can see my family clearly and that is priceless.”

Scarly Mata was 21 years old when she encountered a challenge in her vision. He had developed advanced keratoconus that prevented him from seeing clearly and living his day-to-day life normally. Even his wife was worried about him as he crossed the street.

But one day, he received a call that would change his life forever. Bancorneas offered him a procedure to improve his vision: femtosecond laser corneal ring placement. Scarly was desperate for a solution and decided to give it a try.

From the moment the rings were placed, he could see a dramatic improvement in his vision. He no longer had to worry about a failed transplant on his left eye performed in the past by another institution and could once again lead a normal life. Scarly spent many hours in front of the computer and used to have to get very close to the screen, but now she could work comfortably from a distance.

He tells us that his experience has been surprisingly positive and that he would recommend the procedure without hesitation. The placement of the corneal rings has transformed his life in a significant way and he is deeply grateful to Bancorneas and Centro Laser for their assistance and support throughout the process.

KERARING corneal rings donated by Mediphacos were used in the procedure.
