I suppose asking so many questions isn't going to help much but I do have heartfelt sympathy for it. |
In Cogan's dystrophy, the bottom layer of epithelium cells are thick and uneven. This means all the layers above don't attach properly. When it goes, everything above tears off in hunks. The doctor I saw in the ER recommends a corneal scrape. This does not sound like a whole lotta fun. We'll see what the regular specialist says next week.
