The CT appearance of a corneal melt: report of 2 cases.

A Bluestone1, J Ackert, P M Som.   

Abstract

When the cornea of the eye dissolves, most commonly secondary to infection or trauma, the ventral wall of the anterior chamber of the eye is no longer supported and thus bulges forward, enlarging the anterior chamber volume. This is referred to as a corneal melt, and it has a unique CT appearance that has not been previously described.
