Breakthrough: Treating myopia and farsightedness with eye drops

Israeli ophthalmologists have successfully tested cured eye drops in animals. It is expected that testing of this breakthrough eye drops will be done on people later this year.

RT channel (Russia) reported that doctors at Shaare Zedek Medical Center have joined hands with the Institute of Nanotechnology and Advanced Materials of Bar-Ilan University (Israel) to test myopia and named 'nanodrops' on pigs and obtained positive results. Accordingly, the damaged cornea has been healed and the pigs in the test have increased vision.

By the end of the year, this drug will be tested on humans and if successful, this could be an effective solution to help people with refractive errors not wear glasses.

The ophthalmologist David Smadja shared about the success achieved in the Jerusalem Post (Israel) on February 21.

Dr Smadja confirmed that the method of using nanoparticles could be revolutionary in the treatment of ophthalmology and vision for presbyopia, nearsightedness and other eye conditions.

While synthetic nanoparticles solutions have been shown to improve vision problems, the Israeli group of doctors has not yet published details of the amount of eye drops that patients need to use to completely escape. from wearing glasses.
