摘要：

The cornea is precious to sight. Its intricate cellular arrangement and physiology enable it to be transparent and refractive. Corneal dystrophies (CDs) impact vision at various decades of life depending on the dystrophy at hand. Left untreated, visual ramifications ensue. This review article will summarize the current knowledge of the various CDs and the relatively controversial classification based on new genetic knowledge and clinical and histological characteristics. The application of contact lenses, both soft and rigid, has a place in the care and rehabilitation of these unique corneas.
