What is the Cornea?

Your cornea is the clear, outermost layer of your eye—the part that helps focus light so you can see clearly. Think of it like a glass window to your vision. If the cornea gets damaged, infected, or cloudy, it can cause blurry vision, discomfort, or even vision loss.

Common Cornea Problems

    👀 Keratoconus – The cornea thins and bulges outward, making vision blurry.
    🦠
    Corneal Infections (Keratitis) – Caused by bacteria, viruses, or fungi, leading to redness and pain.
    💥
    Corneal Injury or Scarring – Due to accidents, burns, or scratches.
    🌫️
    Corneal Dystrophies – Genetic conditions that cause clouding of the cornea.
    👁️
    Dry Eye Syndrome – When the cornea doesn’t get enough moisture, causing irritation and discomfort.

Signs You May Have a Cornea Problem

    ⚠️ Blurry or distorted vision
    ⚠️ Frequent eye irritation, redness, or burning sensation
    ⚠️ Sensitivity to light (difficulty in bright environments)
    ⚠️ Excessive tearing or dry, scratchy eyes
    ⚠️ Difficulty wearing contact lenses

How Are Corneal Problems Treated?

    The right treatment depends on the condition:
    💧
    Eye Drops & Medications – For infections, allergies, or inflammation.
    🔬
    Corneal Cross-Linking (CXL) – Strengthens the cornea for keratoconus patients.
    👓
    Special Contact Lenses – Custom lenses for better vision in keratoconus.
    🌟
    Laser Treatments – For mild scars or irregularities.
    👁️
    Corneal Transplant (Keratoplasty) – If severe damage occurs, replacing the cornea with a healthy donor cornea can restore vision.
