This document discusses the corneal endothelium and techniques for assessing its health and function. The corneal endothelium is a single layer of hexagonal cells that maintains corneal clarity by pumping fluid out of the stroma. Assessment techniques described include specular microscopy, which examines cell density, morphology, and patterns at high magnification; confocal microscopy and anterior segment OCT for in vivo imaging; and ultrasound pachymetry to measure corneal thickness as an indicator of endothelial function. Common endothelial diseases like Fuchs' dystrophy and conditions affecting assessment are also reviewed.
