What Are the Common Corneal Diseases?
Inflammation: Imagine your eye catching a “cold” — that’s how corneal inflammation feels.
Keratoconus: Picture the cornea shaped like a cone, distorting the way images appear.
Degeneration: The cornea gradually loses its clarity and becomes fragile, like a leaf that changes color and weakens over time.
Injuries and Ulcers: Think of a tiny scratch on the window of your eye, causing pain, redness, and discomfort.
How Are Corneal Diseases Diagnosed?
Don’t worry — diagnosing corneal diseases is quick and straightforward. An eye doctor can examine your eyes using advanced tools, such as:
Slit Lamp: To check the surface of your eye for infections or injuries.
Microscope: To magnify and study the cornea in detail.
Imaging Devices: To capture detailed pictures of your cornea.
What Treatments Are Available?
There are several treatment options for corneal diseases, including:
Medication: Eye drops to treat infections and viruses.
Laser Treatment: To reshape the cornea and correct vision.
Surgery: In severe cases, corneal transplant surgery may be necessary.

Protect Your Eyes: Wear safety glasses during sports or when working in hazardous environments.
