Ghost vessels are abnormal, often transient, vascular structures that appear in the cornea, typically associated with corneal edema or inflammation.
Diagnosis is primarily through a comprehensive eye examination, which may include slit-lamp examination and imaging techniques to assess corneal health.
Treatment options may include managing underlying conditions, using topical medications, or in some cases, surgical interventions to restore corneal clarity.
