Corneal dystrophy is an autosomal dominant disease, which cannot be completely cured at present. Patients can improve the discomfort and promote the recovery of the disease through general treatment, medication and surgery.
1. General treatment: patients should develop good eye hygiene habits, avoid rubbing their eyes when their hands are not clean, and ensure sufficient sleep, etc., which can help alleviate the symptoms of eye discomfort.
2. Medication: When corneal epithelial erosion occurs, patients can follow the doctor’s instructions to use medication, such as erythromycin ophthalmic ointment, gentamycin ophthalmic ointment, tobramycin eye drops, etc., to prevent infections and promote the recovery of the condition.
3. Surgical treatment: If the patient’s cornea is cloudy and there is a significant loss of vision, the patient can have surgical treatment, such as lamellar corneal transplantation.
It is recommended that patients with corneal dystrophy consult a doctor in time to assess their condition and follow the doctor’s instructions for treatment.
