The Unprofessional Guide to cornea plana

Getting a cornea plana diagnosis can feel like being handed a map to a country you've never heard of — full of unfamiliar words, scary tests, and questions you didn't know you had. This guide is your travel companion. It walks you through everything from "What is this, really?" to "What do I say to my boss?" — written in plain language that respects your intelligence without making you feel like a medical student.

You'll learn what's happening in your eye, why it happened (when we actually know), what you might feel, and what your treatment options are — complete with honest trade-offs. You'll also find real talk about day-to-day life, mental health, and how to talk to the people around you. If you're a caregiver, there's a whole chapter for you — because supporting someone without losing yourself is a skill, and you deserve support too.

This is not medical advice. It's a handbook — the kind your doctor might give you if they had an hour to sit down and explain everything. Read it at your own pace, keep it on your nightstand, and bring it to your appointments.
