L'ulcération cornéenne prend les formes et les dimensions les plus variées. Elle intéresse outre l'épithélium, la membrane de Bowman et parfois le stoma. Elle menace définitivement la vision si elle est centrale, car sa cicatrisation sera le plus souvent opaque, et parfois, l'architecture oculaire si elle évolue vers une perforation. 2, record 2, French, - ulc%C3%A9ration%20corn%C3%A9enne
