Band keratopathy is a corneal disease derived from the appearance of calcium on the central cornea.
A corneal erosion is characterized by a spontaneous detachment of the basal cells of the corneal epithelium from the underlying basement membrane.
Contact lens wear can cause a change in corneal physiology, which may lead to lead to epithelial, stromal, and endothelial compromise.
Descemetocele involves the anterior bulging or rupture of an intact Descemet's membrane through a defect of the overlying corneal stroma and epithelium.
Pellucid marginal degeneration is a condition characterized by peripheral corneal thinning and corneal ectasia.
Corneal hydrops occurs after a rupture in Descemet's membrane and is characterized by severe corneal edema.
Keratoconus is a disease of the cornea. It is characterized by progressive thinning of the corneal stroma and a progressive steepening in the shape of the cornea.
A form of corneal dystrophy characterized by a metaplasia of endothelial cells.
Epithelial basement membrane dystrophy (EBMD) is a degenerative condition of the anterior layer of the cornea.
Endothelial corneal dystrophy is characterized by corneal guttata and other morphologic abnormalities of the endothelium.
