GLOSSARY (summary)


cornea
Transparent central part of the eye, which covers the pupil and the iris.


cul-de-sac conjunctival
A space formed when the lower eyelid is pulled down, which detaches from the eye and forms a cavity. The drops of eye drops and the ophthalmic ointments must be placed in it. The drug is distributed naturally throughout the eye. It will be eliminated, like the tears, by the lacrymal canal, which evacuates the tears towards the nose.


Eczema
Skin disease manifested by pimples and itching. Eczema may be due to contact with an allergic substance (contact eczema) or be linked to a genetic predisposition (atopic eczema).


treatment
Treatment that complements the action of a specific treatment, but generally does not achieve healing on its own.


vitamin
An essential ingredient for the growth and proper functioning of the body. Vitamin requirements are normally covered by a varied diet. In developed countries, only vitamin D deficiency, in the young child or the old man who is exposed to the sun, justifies systematic supplementation. Superior intake, especially with medicines, can lead to overdose and various disorders (mainly vitamins A and D).
