Description preview

Scarring of the stroma, the central layer of the cornea, due to Injury or infection, and severe stromal thinning
due to keratoconus, cause corneal blindness worldwide. Cornea transplantation is often the only cure for many

of these conditions, but limited supply of donor tissue is a major concern. Cell therapy for the stroma, still under…
