Corneal dystrophies are frequently seen in our clinics. This lecture presented by Professor Fiona Carley will enable clinicians to correctly identify corneal dystrophies and classify them according to the corneal layers. It will highlight the presentation of common dystrophies and their subsequent management, particularly in respect of the newer lamellar procedures enabling clinicians to make appropriate management and referral recommendations to their patients.
