What is the Treatment for corneal ulcer ?

Treatment for corneal ulcers depends on the type and severity of the ulcer. For superficial ulcers, strong antibiotic therapy for bacterial corneal ulcers, antiviral therapy for viral corneal ulcers, topical application of antifungal agents for fungal corneal ulcers are the mainstay of treatment in addition to painkillers and medications to dilate the pupil. Steroids and anaesthetics should not be given. Deep ulcers may require conjunctival or corneal grafting.
