Corneale

Corneale is a term that may appear in historical or multilingual medical writings but is not a standard entry in contemporary English medical vocabulary. In modern contexts, the adjective relating to the cornea is corneal; corneale, when encountered, is typically considered an archaic or variant spelling, often found in older Latin or French-to-English translations. It may describe anything pertaining to the cornea, the transparent front part of the eye, though current usage favors corneal.

As a surname, Corneale is uncommon. Genealogical records show only a small number of isolated instances, and there are no broadly recognized figures publicly identified with this surname in major reference works. The name may derive from a habitational, occupational, or patronymic origin, but specific etymology is not well documented in accessible sources.

In modern reference works, Corneale is generally treated as a rare or obsolete form rather than a distinct contemporary term. For related topics, see cornea, corneal, and corneous.
