Cornea Services
The cornea is the clear front part of the eye that helps to focus light. It covers the iris and pupil, and is composed of five layers: the epithelium, Bowman’s layer, stroma, Descemet’s membrane, and endothelium. The cornea is very important for vision, as it helps to bend light so that it can be focused on the retina. If the cornea is damaged, vision may be impaired. Corneal transplants are sometimes necessary to restore vision.
