CTAK, or Custom Tissue Addition for Keratoconus, is a tissue addition procedure designed to reshape the cornea, improve regularity, and help reduce the need for corneal transplant in selected patients.
CTAK stands for Custom Tissue Addition for Keratoconus. It involves adding a thin, custom-shaped donor tissue lenticule into the cornea to help flatten and reshape the cornea.
This can improve corneal regularity, enhance vision quality, and may help delay or avoid the need for corneal transplant in selected cases.
CTAK may improve corneal shape and vision quality in selected patients, but results vary. It is not a guarantee of perfect vision.
Glasses, specialty contact lenses, or other procedures may still be needed for best vision in some cases.
Every keratoconus case is different. I carefully evaluate corneal imaging, review progression, and discuss whether CTAK may be the right option for you.
My goal is to help you understand your choices and create a personalized plan for the best possible outcome.
