    The peripheral cornea differs from the central cornea, making it susceptible to unique disorders. This review classifies and discusses these peripheral cornea conditions.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Corneal Science

    Background:

    • The peripheral cornea exhibits distinct anatomical and physiological characteristics compared to the central cornea.
    • It interfaces with conjunctiva, episclera, and sclera, incorporating vascular, lymphatic, and inflammatory components.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present a classification and discussion of disorders affecting the peripheral cornea.
    • To highlight conditions unique to the peripheral cornea due to its anatomical and physiological distinctiveness.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review and synthesis of existing knowledge on peripheral corneal disorders.
    • Classification of disorders based on their origin and relationship to the peripheral cornea.

    Main Results:

    • Peripheral cornea disorders fall into three main categories: secondary spread from adjacent tissues, systemic diseases, and primary peripheral conditions.

  • Examples include infectious diseases, hypersensitivity, degenerations, vasculitides, autoimmune disorders, and metabolic conditions.

    • Conclusions:

    • The peripheral cornea's unique anatomical position predisposes it to specific pathological processes.
    • Understanding these disorders is crucial for accurate diagnosis and management of peripheral corneal diseases.
