Electrospun Poly (Glycerol Sebacate) (PGS) Membranes for Corneal Tissue Engineering
Fibrous PGS membranes that are composed of homogenous fibers are fabricated by electrospinning. Durability and permeability of the membranes closely resemble the natural cornea. Thereby, successfully supporting the proliferation of human corneal epithelial cells (HCEC) and human corneal endothelial cells (HCEndC).

Impact of contact lens correction on wavefront aberrations and vision quality in keratoconus
Abstract Purpose To review the optical principles of contact lens correction in keratoconus, with a focus on residual ocular wavefront error and its impact on vision performance. Findings Corneal rigid gas permeable (RGP) contact lenses, commonly used in keratoconus management, often fail to improve vision quality to levels observed in non‐diseased ...
