Use of the corneal bioreactor to evaluate the anti‐edema effect and the ulcer healing rate between two commercial hyperosmotic eye drops: ODM5 and Muro 128
Abstract:PurposeThe corneal bioreactor (BR) in our laboratory, with an intraocular pressure (IOP) of 21 mmHg and the renewal of the culture medium, allows to maintain the homeostasis of the 3 layers of the cornea. We showed that an IOP reduced to 10 mmHg allowed to simulate a corneal edema (760 ± 57 µm) with a healthy epithelium.AimTo compare 2 hyperosmolar eye drops in the evolution of corneal deturgescence and epithelial ulcer healing: ODM5 composed mainly of NaCl 5% and hyaluronic acid (Horus Pharma, Saint‐Laurent‐d… Show more
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.
