An adherent leukoma is a type of corneal opacity that is firmly attached to the underlying corneal tissue, often resulting from scarring due to injury or infection.
Treatment options may include surgical intervention such as corneal transplantation or other procedures aimed at restoring vision, depending on the severity of the condition.
Complications can include persistent visual impairment, increased risk of infection, and potential need for further surgical interventions.
