Corneal Disease

Corneal disease refers to a variety of conditions that affect the cornea, the clear, front part of the eye that helps focus light. Common issues include infections, injuries, and degenerative conditions, which can lead to pain, blurred vision, and even blindness if untreated. Causes may include bacteria, viruses, or exposure to harmful substances. Symptoms might include redness, sensitivity to light, or a feeling of something in the eye. Treatment options vary from medications to surgery, depending on the severity and type of the disease. Regular eye check-ups can help detect problems early.
