NIH researchers develop eye drops that slowed vision loss in animals with degenerative eye diseases.
Researchers at the NIH have developed eye drops containing a fragment of the PEDF protein, which helped slow vision loss in animal tests of degenerative eye diseases like retinitis pigmentosa and dry age-related macular degeneration.
Though not a cure, these eye drops show promise and could potentially slow the progression of similar diseases in humans.
Clinical trials for human use are planned.
