Inflammation of the cornea. It often takes the form of a corneal ulcer and may result from injury, contact with chemicals, or an infection. Symptoms of keratitis include pain and excessive watering of the eye, blurring of vision, and photophobia. Noninfective keratitis is treated by covering the affected eye. Drugs such as antibiotics may be given to treat infective keratitis.
