“…The natural cornea consists of three cellular layers (epithelium, stroma and endothelium) and two acellular layers (Bowman’s and Descemet’s membranes) ( Figure 2 )[ 76 ]. Stroma forms the major part of the cornea, accounting for 90% of the corneal thickness (approximate 500 µm)[ 75 ].…”

“… 102 Another strategy is autologous stem cell-based therapies, which use adult stem cells such as skin-derived precursors, mesenchymal stem cells, and induced pluripotent stem cells for the expansion of corneal endothelial cells. 103 Bioengineered materials have also been developed to aid the expansion of endothelial cells and eventual delivery of cultured cell sheet by intracameral injection. 104 …”

“…The only currently conceivable way to completely dispense with donor material would be to establish suitable protocols for manufacturing clinically applicable pluripotent cells from somatic cells, to establish how to successfully differentiate the cells into the desired (corneal) phenotype and to correct genetic defects (in the case of corneal dystrophies) during these processes [32,33]. Purely pharmacological strategies complement the potential spectrum of corneal regenerative therapies.…”
