Corneal dystrophy is a common ophthalmic genetic disease caused by genetic mutations. With certain types of corneal dystrophy, various forms of grayish-white proteins accumulate as the cornea heals after damage. This leads to reduced eyesight and the loss of vision in extreme cases.\u00a0\u200b<\/p>

Corneal dystrophy usually manifests between childhood and young adulthood: however, symptoms can appear late in one’s thirties due to genetic and environmental differences. In addition, the correlation between the disease and the age of onset is hard to predict as the age of onset varies widely even within families with the same genetic mutation.\u200b<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
