The cornea is a thin, transparent layer that covers the front of the eye, covering the aqueous humor, iris, and pupil. Interestingly, there are no blood vessels in the cornea.

Acting like a window, the cornea separates the inside of the eye from the outside environment by having two important functions:

• one to guide light rays into the eye and focus them on the retina, and
• two to protect the structures inside the eyeball.

This very important and significant organ may be susceptible to diseases such as keratoconus or corneal haze.

Timely diagnosis and treatment of these diseases help to preserve and stabilize vision and otherwise require complex treatments. The Super-Specialty Cornea Clinic of Aftab Eye Hospital provides this service with the presence of experienced specialists and the use of the most advanced diagnostic and therapeutic devices.
