Corneal Ulcer Treatment

A corneal ulcer is a serious eye condition involving an open sore or infection on the cornea, the transparent front layer of the eye. It can develop due to infections, injuries, dry eyes, or improper contact lens use. Corneal ulcers require immediate medical attention because delayed treatment may lead to permanent vision loss or scarring.

Modern corneal ulcer treatment focuses on eliminating infection, reducing inflammation, relieving pain, and protecting the cornea from further damage. Early diagnosis and prompt care are essential for preserving vision and preventing complications.
