Corneal Haze

Corneal haze is a condition where the normally clear front part of the eye, called the cornea, becomes cloudy or opaque. This can affect vision, making it appear blurred or foggy. Haze may occur after eye surgery, injury, or certain diseases, as it results from the buildup of cells and proteins that disrupt the cornea’s transparency. Treatments may include medications or, in severe cases, surgery to restore clarity. Maintaining corneal health is essential for clear vision, so any significant changes should be assessed by an eye care professional.
