Patients with corneal leukoplakia can be treated with laser therapy and surgery to remove the lesions and improve their vision.
Corneal leukoplakia is a common disease in ophthalmology, which is mostly caused by corneal infection, trauma and other reasons that lead to scarring of the corneal stromal tissues. Since the scarring is opaque, white patches are formed in the transparent corneal tissues, and thus can affect the patient’s vision. If the corneal white patches are small in size and shallow in depth, the patient can be treated with laser therapy to cut the lesions and improve the patient’s vision.
If the corneal leukoplakia is large in size and deep in depth, patients can be treated by surgery, such as corneal transplantation, to improve the transparency of the cornea and improve vision.
It is recommended that patients with corneal leukoplakia should consult the hospital in time to assess their condition and follow the doctor’s instructions for treatment.
