Cornea Disorders and Treatments

The eye is made up of incredibly delicate tissues, and each portion of the eye has its own function in maintaining normal vision. The cornea, which covers the iris, pupil, and anterior chamber, is the transparent front section of the eye. The cornea, along with the anterior chamber and lens, refracts light, accounting for around two-thirds of the total optical power of the eye. However, corneal ulceration, epithelial keratitis, drug-induced epithelial keratitis, corneal regeneration, recurrent corneal erosion, and other corneal illnesses can all impact the cornea and lead to external eye disease, which can result in irreversible blindness. As a result, corneal disease is investigated in order to reduce the condition, and methods such as contact lenses and vision correction are utilised to treat vision-related disorders, as well as surgical procedures such as corneal transplantation.
