- Abstract:
The article focuses on the innovative concept for a hydrogel liquid ocular bandage which is designed to seal corneal incisions. It states that the bandage provides a soft, smooth, and transparent protective barrier film which can improve wound integrity and closure and did not reduce best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA). It says that the bandage is composed of two components separated by a membrane such as the powdered polyethylene glycol and liquid polyethylene amine.
