==Microscopic examination==
[[File:Histopathology of corneal acute and chronic inflammation.jpg|thumb|200px|Corneal subepithelial acute inflammation, seen as the presence of neutrophils, as well as chronic inflammation, seen as plasma cells and lymphocytes. There is an associated neovascularization. Bowman's membrane is disrupted. The findings are non-specific.]]
Look for integrity of Bowman's and Descemet's '''membranes'''.

For '''corneal opacities''', look for the most common causes, which generally manifest as:<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.winchesterhospital.org/health-library/article?id=102906|title=Corneal Opacity|author=Michael Woods|website=Winchester Hospital, MA|year=2018}}</ref>
