Scientists test Lab-Grown eye cells to repair damaged vision
NCT ID NCT03957954
Summary
This early-stage study is testing a personalized treatment for people with severe damage to the clear front part of their eye (cornea). Doctors take a tiny sample of a patient's own healthy eye cells, grow them in a lab, and then transplant them back to try to repair the damaged surface. The main goals are to see if this process is safe and if the lab-grown cells can be reliably made and transplanted.
