Title:
PREVENTION AND/OR TREATMENT OF EYE DISEASE BY COLLAGEN FIBER CROSSLINKING
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2022/019304
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention provides an improvement in the strength of the scleral by collagen fiber crosslinking via crosslinking treatment of the sclera at the equatorial region of the eye and/or at the posterior pole such as the fundus of the eye. Also provided is the prevention and/or treatment of eye disease by the same. Provided are: a photosensitizer used in a crosslinking treatment for the sclera at the equatorial region of the eye and/or at the posterior pole of the eye; a kit containing the same; and a method for emitting light for the crosslinking treatment.
