The cornea functions as the major refractive interface for vision and protects the internal eye from insult. Current understanding of innate immune responses to corneal infection derives from a ...

We propose a simplified micromechanical model of the fibrous reinforcement of the corneal tissue. We restrict our consideration to the structural function of the collagen fibrils located in the stroma ...

An injectable biomaterial activated by pulses of low-energy blue light has tremendous potential for on-the-spot repair to the domed outer layer of the eye, a team of University of Ottawa researchers ...

<p>A) Actual image of corneal opacity in mice (arrow). Incidentally, this is the first model of corneal opacity caused by a genetic defect in the field of ophthalmology. </p> <p>B) Determining the ...

New research reveals a potential revolutionary way to treat eye injuries and prevent blindness -- by softening the tissue hosting the stem cells which then helps repair wounds, inside the body. New ...

Epioxa is a small molecule drug delivered as an eye drop that strengthens the cornea.
