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 may include surgical options such as keratoplasty (corneal transplant) or other interventions aimed at improving vision and addressing underlying causes.
Complications can include persistent visual impairment, risk of infection, and potential for further corneal scarring or opacity.
