Cornea and Refractive Services
The cornea plays a crucial role in focusing light and maintaining clear vision.
The cornea is the clear front window of the eye and does most of its focusing. Corneal disease, infection or injury can reduce vision, while refractive errors (short sight, long sight, astigmatism) can often be corrected with glasses, lenses or laser.
When to see an eye doctor
