Eye injection shows promise against fungal ulcers
NCT ID NCT02731638
First seen Sep 30, 2025 · Last updated May 17, 2026 · Updated 28 times
Summary
This study tested whether adding an antifungal injection (voriconazole) directly into the cornea improves treatment for fungal eye ulcers compared to standard antifungal drops alone. 70 adults with moderate to severe fungal corneal ulcers were randomly assigned to receive either the injection plus drops or drops only. The main goal was to see if the injection helped clear the fungus faster by checking for infection after 3 days.
