Definition:A transparent homogeneous acellular layer found between the substantia propria and the endothelial layer of the cornea[MP].
Comment:The strong, resistant, thin, noncellular fourth layer of the cornea, located between the endothelium (from which it is secreted) and the stroma. (Cline et al., Dictionary of Visual Science, 4th ed)
