The corneal endothelium governs fluid and solute transport across the posterior surface of the cornea and actively maintains the cornea in the slightly dehydrated state that is required for optical transparency.

Vertical pigment deposition is a condition where pigment from the iris is deposited on the corneal endothelium. This can be caused by conditions such as pigment dispersion syndrome or pseudoexfoliation syndrome. It can lead to pigment dispersion glaucoma and corneal endothelial damage.

The three layers of an artery are Endothelium, smooth muscle, and connective tissue.
depends on etiology vague question/could be from pigment dispersion syndrome,iritis,pseudoexfoliation,FUch's endothelial dystrophy many others. Finding could be begnign or could be a sign of something really wrong.

Germiniao Ocampo is the one who introduced the corneal transplantation in the Philippines - Also he designed a corneal dissector.
corneal reflex. It involves touching the cornea with a wisp of cotton, which should trigger a blinking response mediated by the trigeminal nerve, specifically the ophthalmic branch. This reflex assesses the sensory function of the trigeminal nerve in detecting sensations on the cornea.

Corneal scissors are surgical instruments used to make precise incisions in the cornea during eye surgeries, such as cataract surgery or corneal transplantation. They have fine, sharp blades that allow for delicate cutting without causing damage to surrounding tissue.
