Key updates include the inclusion of epithelial recurrent erosion dystrophy as a category 1 dystrophy with COL17A1 mutations, the discovery that Lisch epithelial corneal dystrophy is autosomal dominant with MCOLN1 mutations, and the proposal of a new nomenclature for lattice corneal dystrophy (LCD) variants based on specific TGFBI mutations.

It also clarifies the distinction between true corneal dystrophies and systemic diseases with corneal findings, such as Meretoja syndrome (systemic amyloidosis). The document provides a management table and standardized templates for each dystrophy, serving as a comprehensive clinical reference.
