Corneal opacity is a common clinical problem that directly impedes the cornea's function of light transmission. Despite this, there are no standard means of quantifying opacity. The purpose of this review is to summarize the reported options both clinicians and researchers have for objectively assessing corneal opacity. Review of the peer-reviewed literature reporting methods for assessing clinical opacity and transparency in both the research and clinic setting. Although a number of techniques for assessing corneal opacity have been reported in the literature, none have been widely adopted, highlighting the fact that there is still a need for an accessible, objective and easy to use method for quantifying corneal opacity.
角膜混浊是一个常见的临床问题，直接阻碍角膜的光传导功能。尽管如此，目前尚无量化混浊程度的标准方法。本综述的目的是总结临床医生和研究人员在客观评估角膜混浊方面已报道的方法。对同行评审文献进行综述，这些文献报道了在研究和临床环境中评估临床混浊和透明度的方法。虽然文献中已报道了多种评估角膜混浊的技术，但均未得到广泛采用，这突出表明仍需要一种易于获取、客观且易于使用的方法来量化角膜混浊。
