Conjunctival Lithotripsy

Ocular stones are multiple, hard yellow spots on the palpebral conjunctiva, which are denatured products of epithelial cell accumulation and mucus condensation. There is no treatment without clinical symptoms. If the conjunctiva or cornea is stimulated, it needs to be removed with a foreign body needle. Antibiotic eye drops are dropped after the operation.
