Answer
Hello! Her son has a corneal tumor and she is wondering if the keratoma needs to be removed? In this case, the doctor thinks the possibility of surgery is almost absolute. You should take your child to the doctor for an eye exam and the most clear advice about the nature of the tumor? Benign or unhealthy? And surgical methods for each type of corneal tumor. You can take him to the hospitals of Vinmec Health System for more advice on the treatment of corneal tumors.
Thank you for trusting Vinmec. Looking forward to meeting your mother and daughter for more specific advice!
