What is Corneal Injury?

Corneal injury may be caused by congenital factors, trauma, infectious factors and other reasons.

1. Congenital factors

When the human body has genetic mutations leading to corneal epithelium and basement membrane dystrophy, it will lead to certain damage to the cornea.

2. Trauma

When the eye is severely impacted by external forces or stabbed, burns and other conditions, it may lead to corneal epithelium damage, exfoliation, erosion and other phenomena.

3. Infectious factors

When the eye is invaded and infected by pathogens, it can lead to a large number of inflammatory factors in the eye. Under the stimulation of inflammation, the cornea will be damaged to varying degrees.
