The Cornea: The Window to Clear Vision
Imagine the cornea as nature’s masterpiece, a transparent dome-shaped structure at the front of the eye that plays a vital role in focusing light rays onto the retina, allowing us to see the world around us with clarity and precision. Composed of layers of specialized cells and collagen fibers, the cornea acts as the eye’s outermost lens, providing approximately two-thirds of the eye’s total focusing power.
Keratoconus: Unveiling the Challenges of Corneal Degeneration
Despite its remarkable resilience, the cornea is susceptible to various conditions, including keratoconus, a progressive eye disorder characterized by thinning and bulging of the cornea into a cone-like shape. This structural abnormality disrupts the cornea’s ability to focus light properly onto the retina, leading to distorted vision, increased sensitivity to light, and frequent changes in prescription.
