Diagnosis and Prognosis: There is no disease elsewhere in the body. An ophthalmologist usually makes the diagnosis. [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]

Visual prognosis is dependent on the disease severity. [eyerounds.org]

In generalized sclerocornea, early keratoplasty should be considered to provide vision, although the prognosis is guarded. [2] It has been argued that the term “sclerocornea” should be regarded only as a sign but not a diagnosis. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Etiology  Ocular diseases. [slideshare.net]

Etiology Congenital endothelial corneal dystrophy, type I is caused by mutations of a certain area in chromosome 20. The mutation is transmitted in the family by an autosomal-dominant type. [keratoplastika.dp.ua]

Etiology and Pathophysiology Most cases of Peters anomaly are sporadic without an identified genetic cause. It can occur as an isolated finding or associated with systemic disease as in Peters-plus syndrome. [eyerounds.org]

However, to prevent amblyopia and provide visual rehabilitation a penetrating keratoplasty (PKP) of the right eye was recommended. The patient subsequently underwent synechiolysis of iridocorneal adhesions and PKP in the right eye. [eyerounds.org]

These cells perform barrier function: they prevent the penetration of intraocular fluid into the thickness of the cornea. The feature of endothelial cells – they are impossible to be restored. [keratoplastika.dp.ua]
