In vivo confocal microscopy as a diagnostic tool in Schnyder Corneal Dystrophy’s case
DOI: 10.5935/0034-7280.20190142
Schnyder’s corneal dystrophy (SCD) is a rare corneal condition characterized by cholesterol and phospholipids deposition in the stroma and Bowman’s layer. We present a case report of a patient who had a progressive corneal stromal haze in both eyes since he was 15 years old. Etiological diagnosis of SCD was well established by In Vivo Confocal Microscopy (IVCM).
