The cornea is a specialized, transparent, avascular, immune-privileged, and heavily
innervated tissue that affords 2/3rd of refraction to the eye. Ocular injuries, infections, and …

Important functions of cornea in the eye include protecting the structures inside the eye,
contributing to the refractive power of the eye, and focusing light rays on the retina with …

Abstract Development of topical bioactive formulations capable of overcoming the low
bioavailability of conventional eye drops is critically important for efficient management of …

Bioprinting offers a highly-automated and advanced manufacturing platform that facilitates
the deposition of bio-inks (living cells, biomaterials and growth factors) in a scalable and …

Corneal transplantation constitutes one of the leading treatments for severe cases of loss of
corneal function. Due to its limitations, a concerted effort has been made by tissue engineers …

No other tissue in the body depends more on the composition and organization of the
extracellular matrix (ECM) for normal structure and function than the corneal stroma. The …

There is a high demand for developing methods to produce more native-like 3D corneal
structures. In the present study, we produced 3D cornea-mimicking tissues using human …

Eye diseases and injuries impose a significant clinical problem worldwide. Safe and
effective ocular drug delivery is, however, challenging due to the presence of ocular barriers …

Wound healing is one of the most complex biological processes to occur in life. Repair of
tissue following injury involves dynamic interactions between multiple cell types, growth …

The cornea is the most sensitive structure in the human body. Corneal nerves adapt to
maintain transparency and contribute to corneal health by mediating tear secretion and …
