Their availability locally is crucial, not only to reduce the burden of travel on patients but also to avoid the complications that can result from delayed treatment. Corneal transplants, in particular, restore vision for patients suffering from corneal opacity or damage. These operations can dramatically improve patients&#8217; quality of life.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/963media.com\/en\/13\/05\/2025\/general-mazloum-abdi-welcomes-the-lifting-of-u-s-sanctions-on-syria\/\">General Mazloum Abdi Welcomes the Lifting of U.S. Sanctions on Syria<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dr. Ghazal noted that the hospital has now begun to perform retinal procedures as well. \u201cWhat distinguishes the current phase,\u201d he said, \u201cis our growing ability to handle complex cases that were previously beyond our capacity. This progress is largely due to the sharing of advanced medical knowledge in specific cases, as well as support from the Canadian medical delegation, which brought in modern technology.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He acknowledged, however, that significant challenges remain. \u201cAmong the key obstacles are the limited availability of highly trained specialists, the absence of prior experience in conducting such delicate surgeries at local facilities, and the lack of advanced surgical equipment and microsurgical aids.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dr. Ghazal also highlighted the shortage of trained surgical teams in this field, particularly ophthalmologists with the specialised training required for such complex interventions. \u201cThe lack of hands-on experience creates hesitation when making critical surgical decisions,\u201d he explained.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite these hurdles, the successful completion of this corneal transplant signals a hopeful shift in local healthcare capabilities and paves the way for further advancements in ophthalmic surgery in the region.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to a medical source speaking to +963, the pioneering eye surgery was carried out at Al-Hikma Specialised Hospital in Idlib.
