Common eye ointments linked to swelling and rupture of glaucoma implants
Widely used eye ointments can cause glaucoma implants to swell and potentially rupture, according to new research from Nagoya University in Japan. The study is the first to show, using
mRNA vaccine shows promise for treating age-related macular degeneration
Researchers at Science Tokyo developed an mRNA vaccine that suppressed abnormal retinal blood vessel growth in mouse models. The vaccine can be administered intramuscularly and showed effectiveness comparable to current
