Anterior corneal pigmentations are deposits of pigment on the front surface of the cornea, which can be caused by various factors including trauma, inflammation, or systemic diseases.
Treatment may involve monitoring, topical medications, or surgical interventions such as corneal transplantation, depending on the underlying cause and severity of the pigmentation.
Diagnosis typically involves a comprehensive eye examination, including slit-lamp biomicroscopy to assess the cornea's condition and any associated ocular abnormalities.
