Ghost vessels are abnormal, often transient, vascular structures that can appear in the cornea, typically associated with various corneal diseases or conditions.
Diagnosis is made through a comprehensive eye examination, including visual acuity tests and slit-lamp examination, to assess the corneal condition.
Treatment depends on the underlying cause and may include medications, laser therapy, or surgical interventions to address the associated corneal condition.
