Corneal edema

Corneal edema is an ophthalmic condition characterized by the abnormal accumulation of fluid within the stromal and epithelial layers of the cornea, compromising the eye's physiological state of relative dehydration (deturgescence) Clinically, this excess hydration disorganizes the regular spacing of stromal collagen fibrils, presenting as corneal haze, increased central pachymetric thickness, Descemet membrane folds, or epithelial bullae that lead to reduced visual acuity and ocular discomfort
