| Name = Corneal limbus | Latin = Limbus corneae | Image = Limbus.png | Caption = Schematic diagram of the human eye | Image2 = | Caption2 = | Precursor = | System = | Artery = | Vein = | Nerve = | Lymph = }} The corneal limbus is the border of the cornea and the sclera (the white of the eye). The limbus is a common site for the occurrence of corneal epithelial neoplasm. The limbus contains radially-oriented fibrovascular ridges known as the palisades of Vogt that may harbour a stem cell population.[1] The palisades of Vogt are more common in the superior and inferior quadrants around the eye.[2] Aniridia, a developmental anomaly of the iris, disrupts the normal barrier of the cornea to the conjunctival epithelial cells at the limbus.
