Senile corneal changesView the most recent version of ICD-9-CM 371.41 - A corneal disease in which there is a deposition of phospholipid and cholesterol in the corneal stroma and anterior sclera.
- Senile Corneal Change involves degenerative changes of the cornea related to aging that are highly influenced by changes in the corneal endothelium. Changes include corneal topography, increased density, decreased hydration of the corneal stroma, and epithelial basement membrane dystrophy; The stroma appears hazier than in younger eyes and reduces light transmission. Changes may also include age-related stromal degeneration and deposition.
