Does the cornea have blood supply? Because transparency is of prime importance the cornea does not have blood vessels; it receives nutrients via diffusion from the tear fluid at the outside and the aqueous humour at the inside and also from neurotrophins supplied by nerve fibers that innervate it.

Cornea is a avascular structure.
That means having a lack of blood
vessels.
Question arises?
How cornea gets blood supply ?
And
If it is not having blood vessels then
how cornea keep itself healthy?
Anterior ciliary vessels
Peripheral invasion about 1mm
as small loops.
Opens at subconjunctival tissue
, which overlap the cornea.
