    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Corneal Diseases
    • Histopathology

    Background:

    • Posterior polymorphous corneal dystrophy (PPCD) and Chandler's syndrome are distinct corneal conditions.
    • Family history can be relevant in diagnosing inherited corneal dystrophies.
    • Differential diagnosis between PPCD and Chandler's syndrome can be challenging.
