Nanoparticles in Ocular Drug Delivery Systems
Conventional ophthalmic formulations lack a prolonged drug release effect and mucoadhesive properties, decreasing their residence time in the precorneal area and, therefore, in drug penetration across ocular tissues, presenting low bioavailability with a consequent reduction in therapeutic efficacy...
