Human corneal endothelial cells (HCECs) do not reproduce in vivo: A person is born with a finite number of HCECs that over time will degrade or deteriorate due to age, disease or surgical trauma.
They play an important role in your cornea in maintaining a clear and predictable vision by regulating the stability of the fluid. Damaged or weakened endothelial cells can cause ear inflammation.
