Abstract
Corneal dystrophies are relatively rare diseases of the young adult. We report a case of a Groenouw type II macular corneal dystrophy. A 34-year-old woman with no prior history was referred by her ophthalmologist for bilateral corneal dystrophy developing for several years. Physical examination revealed decreased visual acuity related to bilateral rounded corneal deposits. The patient underwent penetrating keratoplasty. The diagnosis of Groenouw type II macular corneal dystrophy was confirmed by pathological examination of the recipient cornea. The clinical, pathologic and therapeutic features are discussed.
