When Your Eyes Are Telling You Something Is Wrong
The cornea is the clear covering at the front of your eye. It plays a critical role in how you see by transmitting and focusing light as it enters the eye. When disease, infection, or injury affects the cornea, it can cause pain, cloudiness, and vision loss that significantly impacts daily life.

how we treat it
Protecting Vision Through Early Diagnosis and Treatment
Treatment depends on the underlying condition and your overall eye health. Many corneal diseases can be managed successfully with medication and close monitoring. In more advanced cases, Dr. Manguikian may coordinate care with a corneal specialist to ensure you receive the most appropriate treatment.
Because corneal conditions vary widely, there is no one-size-fits-all approach. Dr. Manguikian will carefully evaluate your symptoms, medical history, and the health of your eyes to develop a treatment plan tailored to your needs.
Early diagnosis offers the best opportunity to preserve vision, relieve discomfort, and avoid more complex interventions in the future.
