The cornea and why it matters
The cornea is the transparent front window of the eye and contributes about two-thirds of the eye's focusing power. Even minor scars, infections or shape irregularities can significantly reduce vision — and unlike the retina, corneal disease is often reversible with the right treatment.
Services offered
