Description
Yuanyuan Tu, Yake Sun, Manhui Zhu, and Qingliang Zhao report a rare eye growth case in a 2026 paper. A 48-year-old man had yellow-white growths at the edge of both corneas that had grown for 20 years. His sight in the right eye had fallen to near blindness, and such paired growths are easy to mistake for other eye ills.
Surgeons cut out the right growth and patched the eye with a thin graft. Lab work showed fat-filled guard cells and a cell form that marks this growth type. Whole-body scans found no spread, and a gene test came back clean. The patch healed well, sight rose a bit, and no return showed in 18 months.
