The Cornea of Eye: Vision’s Gateway at Shekar Eye Hospital
The cornea is the transparent front part of the eye that covers the iris, pupil, and anterior chamber, playing a crucial role in focusing light and protecting the eye. As a vital component of vision, it refracts light and contributes significantly to the eye’s ability to focus on objects.
At Shekar Eye Hospital, we believe that understanding the nuances of our eyes is essential. The cornea, often under-discussed yet vital, is our specialization. Here’s why it matters and how we’re making a difference.
Decoding the Cornea
Often likened to a window, the cornea is the transparent front layer of the eye. Acting as a protective barrier against dirt, germs, and other elements, its primary function is to refract incoming light. In essence, it’s our eye’s natural lens, focusing and directing light onto the retina. Any aberrations in its shape or clarity can disrupt this process, leading to visual distortions.
Some of the Corneal Challenges We Address
- Keratitis: A corneal inflammation that could be infectious or non-infectious.
- Keratoconus: A progressive thinning and cone-like protrusion of the cornea affecting vision.
- Corneal Scars: Often resulting from injuries or infections, these can blur vision.
- Fuchs’ Dystrophy: A degenerative condition affecting the innermost layer of the cornea.
