Background:
Bleb disorder of the cornea is a rare corneal epithelial disorder that has previously been described in asymptomatic patients or those with recurrent nontraumatic corneal erosions.
Methods:
We report two cases of bleb disorder, each presenting with blurred vision from irregular astigmatism secondary to the bleb changes. We also report on the detection of bleb disorder in siblings.
Results:
Both patients underwent surgical debridement of the epithelium with resolution of symptoms on epithelial resurfacing.
Conclusion:
The diagnostic clues, inheritance pattern, differential diagnosis, and treatment options of bleb disorder of the cornea are discussed.
