| cornea | <anatomy, ophthalmology> The transparent structure forming the anterior part of the fibrous tunic of the eye. It consists of five layers: 1. The anterior corneal epithelium, continuous with that of the conjunctiva. 2. The anterior limiting layer (Bowman's membrane). 3. The substantia propria or stroma. 4. The posterior limiting layer (Descemet's membrane). 5. The endothelium of the anterior chamber. Synonym: keratoderma. Origin: L. Corneus = horny (18 Nov 1997) |
| cornea farinata | Bilateral speckling of the posterior part of the corneal stroma. Synonym: floury cornea. (05 Mar 2000) |

| cornea verticillata | Congenital whorl-like opacities in the cornea. Synonym: Fleischer's vortex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| posterior limiting layer of cornea | A transparent homogeneous acellular layer between the substantia propria and the endothelial layer of the cornea; considered to be a highly developed basement membrane. Synonym: lamina limitans posterior corneae, membrana vitrea, Descemet's membrane, Duddell's membrane, entocornea, hyaloid membrane, lamina elastica posterior, limiting layers of cornea, membrana hyaloidea, posterior elastic layer, tunica vitrea, vitreous membrane.

| substantia propria of cornea | Proper substance of cornea, modified transparent connective tissue, between the layers of which are open spaces or lacunae nearly filled with the corneal cells or corpuscles. Synonym: substantia propria corneae. (05 Mar 2000) |
