MACULAR CORNEAL DYSTROPHY

Alternate names

MACULAR CORNEAL DYSTROPHY Is also known as macular corneal dystrophy, type i, corneal dystrophy, macular type, groenouw type ii corneal dystrophy, mcd, fehr corneal dystrophy, mcdc1, formerly, corneal dystrophy groenouw type ii

Description

Macular corneal dystrophy (MCD) is a rare, severe form of stromal corneal dystrophy (see this term) characterized by bilateral ill-defined cloudy regions within a hazy stroma, and eventually severe visual impairment.

Most common symptoms of MACULAR CORNEAL DYSTROPHY

  • Visual impairment
  • Abnormality of metabolism/homeostasis
  • Visual loss
  • Photophobia
  • Corneal opacity
