Infectious and traumatic corneal diseases require adequate therapy against infection and promote re-epithelialization. The appearance of multidrug-resistant bacterial strains, induced by excessive use of antibiotics in the treatment of infectious diseases, has urged researchers to study new antimicrobial formulations. Ozonated oils have demonstrated antiseptic (antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral) and reparative properties and can be proposed for the prevention and treatment of acute and chronic local infections, as an alternative to conventional topical antimicrobials. In ocular treatment, ozonated oil can exert tissue repair and anti-inflammatory and bactericidal activity. Moreover, its specific formulation makes it well tolerated and biocompatible with the ocular surface. Herein, we report on three cases of corneal inflammation (dendritic epithelial keratitis, corneal injuries caused by olive leaves, and neurotrophic corneal ulcer), treated with liposomal ozonated oil (Ozodrop ® , FB VISION S.p.a. San Benedetto del Tronto, Italy), successfully resolved using topical liposomal ozonated oil.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
