Epithelial basement membrane dystrophy
text:
Epithelial basement membrane dystrophy (EBMD) is a disorder of the eye that can cause pain and dryness. It is sometimes included in the group of corneal dystrophies. It diverges from the formal definition of corneal dystrophy since it is non-familial in most cases. It also has a fluctuating course, while for a typical corneal dystrophy the course is progressive. When it is considered part of this group, it is the most common type of corneal dystrophy.
