Neurotrophic keratopathy is a rare disease involving impaired nerves that affect the cornea. When the nerves don’t work properly, the eye can’t sense or respond to the changes in the environment. This makes it harder for the cornea to stay healthy, leading to damage to corneal cells, problems with the tear film on the eye, and opens the cornea up for infection and NK.
