Abstract

The cornea has important functions such as protecting the structures within the globe, contributing to the refractive power of the eye, and focusing the light rays on the retina with minimum scattering. Although the neurobiological complexity of the retina and the dynamic movement of the lens are absent in the cornea, it is one of the most critical components of the perfect visual system, thanks to its transparency. In order to provide sustainable transparency in the cornea, which is very important for visual function, it is possible with the intense metabolic activity in the cornea and the perfect operation of the balanced ion liquid pump. The cornea provides excellent vision thanks to the structure and functions necessary for its unique function to continue regularly. This review focuses on cornea and tear film structure and physiology.

角膜生理学
角膜具有重要的功能,如保护眼球内的结构,提高眼睛的屈光力,以及以最小的散射将光线聚焦在视网膜上。尽管视网膜的神经生物学复杂性和晶状体的动态运动在角膜中是不存在的,但由于其透明性,它是完美视觉系统最关键的组成部分之一。为了在角膜中提供可持续的透明度(这对视觉功能非常重要),角膜中的强烈代谢活动和平衡离子液体泵的完美操作是可能的。角膜提供了良好的视力,这要归功于其独特功能正常持续所需的结构和功能。本文就角膜和泪膜的结构和生理学进行综述。
