Use of biomaterials in corneal endothelial repair

Therapeutic Advances in Ophthalmology, 2021
Human corneal endothelium (HCE) is a single layer of hexagonal cells that lines the posterior surface of the cornea. It forms the barrier that separates the aqueous humor from the rest of the corneal layers (stroma and epithelium layer). This layer plays
