Cornea Service
The Cornea Service sees patients with disorders of the front portion of the eye as well as what are called "external diseases" of the eye, that is eyelid and conjunctival problems. Patients with corneal infections, keratoconus, cataracts, tumors of the front portion of the eye, blepharitis, dry eyes, and many other disorders are evaluated and treated by the Cornea Service. Patients are also seen and evaluated for refractive surgical procedures to correct nearsightedness and astigmatism.
