Abstract

The article reviews the literature on the classification of endothelial-epithelial dystrophy (EED) of the cornea. The description of endothelial structure, etiology and pathogenesis of the corneal EED are described. Based on own multiple observations and modern methods of corneal tissue imaging, a new modification of the EED classification by V.V. Volkov and M.M. Dronov was created and is presented in the article. This classification makes it possible to more accurately determine the etiopathogenesis of changes in corneal layers and to choose a most rational and effective treatment method.
