Abstract:Corneal ulceration is a "silent epidemic" that impacts laborers’ lives, particularly in low-income countries, and calls for a unique ophthalmic drug delivery strategy that overcomes ocular barriers to promptly achieve therapeutic outcomes while remaining cost-effective. Rosuvastatin, a third-generation statin that significantly accelerates tissue regeneration and wound healing, could be proposed as a potential treatment for corneal ulcers. Based on these pillars, the current study aims to develop a nanofibers-… Show more
