Summary

This study tested an eye drop called OXERVATE in 37 adults with stage 1 neurotrophic keratitis, a condition where the cornea loses feeling and doesn't heal properly. The treatment was given for 8 weeks, and patients were followed for 24 weeks to see if the cornea healed safely. The goal was to check how well the drops work and if they are safe for this early stage of the disease.
