Corneal blindness includes a broad spectrum of infectious and inflammatory eye diseases causing corneal scars that lead to functional blindness. Trachoma, corneal ulcers, ophthalmia neonatorum, xerophthalmia, viral infections, onchocerciasis, leprosy, traditional eye medications, and eye injuries lead to corneal blindness. Despite having complex epidemiology, corneal blindness can be prevented with the timely treatment of the abovementioned diseases. However, if left untreated in the initial stage due to limited access to medical care, corneal transplantation is the only option for treating patients with damaged corneas. According to 2020 statistics from the Cornea Research Foundation of America, keratoconus disorder affects ~50–200 out of every 100,000 people.
