corneal radiography

Corneal phototherapy is one of the methods for the treatment of exposed keratitis. Exposure keratitis (exposurekeratitis) is common in various lesions of cleft palate, causing corneal exposure and blink dyskinesia, tears can not normally wet the cornea. Corneal epithelial damage occurs. The patient is seated in the backlight, and the examiner holds the disc handle to place the disc in front of his or her eyes and sits opposite the patient, about 0.5 m apart.
