An Interesting Case of Granular Corneal Dystrophy Type 1

Corneal epithelial-stromal and stromal dystrophies are a group of inherited disorders of the cornea that are caused by progressive accumulation of deposits within the layers of the cornea. Most dystrophies previously considered stromal are now classified as either epithelial-stromal dystrophies or stromal dystrophies.
