These findings suggest that patients who have corneal neovascularization might benefit from treatment before transplant surgery with growth-inhibiting drugs (antiangiogenics) such as bevacizumab ...

Researchers have developed a new light-based technique that selectively stiffens tissue in the cornea and might one day offer improved treatment for eye problems caused by weakened corneal tissue.

But, while such surgery has a relatively high success rate, it is an invasive procedure and thus subject to post-surgical complications. In addition, laser-assisted vision correction surgeries ...
