What are the Advantages of Using Nanotechnology in Ophthalmology?
Nanotechnology offers several advantages in the field of ophthalmology:
Increased Drug Penetration: Nanoparticles can navigate through ocular barriers, allowing for better drug penetration and therapeutic effect. Enhanced Bioavailability: By improving drug delivery to the eye, nanotechnology increases the bioavailability of active ingredients, potentially reducing the frequency and dose required. Targeted Therapy: Nanotechnology allows for targeted delivery, minimizing systemic exposure and reducing side effects. Improved Patient Compliance: With potentially reduced dosing frequency and enhanced efficacy, patients are more likely to adhere to their treatment regimens.
