Cornea and External Diseases

The cornea is the clear front part of the eye that helps focus light onto the retina, enabling us to see. It is vital for vision and protects the inner parts of the eye. External diseases refer to conditions affecting the outer parts of the eye, including the cornea and surrounding tissues. Common issues include infections, injuries, or conditions like dry eye, which can cause discomfort and vision problems. Prompt diagnosis and treatment are important to maintain eye health and prevent complications. Regular eye check-ups can help detect and address these issues early.
