Randomized, single‐centre, double‐blinded repeated dose investigation of safety and tolerability of ocular administrations of a novel silica eye drop product in healthy volunteers

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Managing ocular diseases often requires frequent eye drop administration, which can challenge patient compliance. A long‐acting eye drop technology using an amorphous synthetic silica composite was developed to address this. Our study aimed to assess the safety and tolerability of the Silica Eye Drop platform in healthy volunteers over

Comprehensive study of traditional glaucoma drainage devices and emerging Micro Invasive Glaucoma Surgery (MIGS) devices: A review

Biomedical Engineering Advances
Glaucoma is a neurogenerative, irreversible disorder caused by elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in the eye, which can lead to vision loss. Currently, reducing IOP by providing an alternate pathway to aqueous humor is the only proven method for ...

Aniridia‐associated keratopathy: Clinical and molecular mechanisms of disease progression and emerging therapeutic targets

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Congenital aniridia is a rare genetic disorder primarily caused by pathogenic variants of the PAX6 gene. It leads to various panocular anomalies, including aniridia‐associated keratopathy (AAK). This review highlights recent insights into its pathogenesis, focusing on clinical staging, microstructural changes in the cornea and molecular ...

Hormonal replacement therapy in postmenopausal women ≥50 years is associated with the incidence of glaucoma: Evidence from 6576 females in Finland

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Hormonal replacement therapy (HRT) in postmenopausal women appears to affect glaucoma risk, but findings are inconsistent. We aimed to explore whether the use of postmenopausal HRT plays a role in glaucoma development in Finland. Methods The main outcome variable was glaucoma incidence measured by initiation of special reimbursement ...
