The normally functioning cornea is in a relatively dehydrated or deturgesced state, which maintains the compact anatomic relations of the stroma and epithelium. The corneal endothelium functions as both a barrier and a pump to maintain corneal deturgescence. Even minimal epithelial edema can cause a significant decrease in visual acuity.
