Anterior segment surgery refers to any surgical procedure performed on the front part of the eye, including the cornea, iris, and lens. These procedures are typically used to treat conditions such as cataracts, corneal diseases, glaucoma, or trauma to the eye.

Common types of anterior segment surgery include cataract surgery, corneal transplants, and surgeries to correct glaucoma. The goal of these surgeries is to improve vision, restore eye function, and prevent complications from eye diseases.

Anterior segment surgeries are often minimally invasive, using advanced technology and techniques to reduce recovery time and improve outcomes for patients.
