What is the surgical removel of colob?

The surgical removal of a coloboma, which is a congenital defect characterized by a gap or notch in the structure of the eye (or other tissues), is typically referred to as coloboma repair or excision. This procedure aims to correct the anatomical defect, improve visual function, or enhance cosmetic appearance, depending on the location and severity of the coloboma. The specific technique used may vary based on the type of coloboma (e.g., iris, retinal, optic nerve) and the patient's individual circumstances. However, the overall success of the surgery can depend on various factors, including the patient's age and the extent of the defect.
