The cornea is the clear window at the front of the eye that covers the colored iris and the pupil. Light is focused while passing through the cornea to form a clear image on the retina. The healthy cornea is transparent. If the cornea is abnormal, damaged or diseased, it may become swollen or scarred, resulting in blurred vision or glare.

The conditions affecting the Cornea are as follows:

• Congenital and hereditary corneal disorders
• Corneal infections
• Allergic eye diseases
• Immunologic disorders of cornea
• Keratoconus and other corneal degenerations
• Ocular surface disorders including severe dry eye, blepharitis, chemical injuries, Stevens Johnson’s syndrome
• Ocular surface tumor
• Refractive error

• Pachymetry – Measurement of corneal thickness
• Anterior segment Digital Photography
• Specialized Contact lens fitting – for irregular cornea, keratoconus and for therapeutic purposes
