Abstract
Abstract: The design of the prosthetic replacement of the ocular surface ecosystem (PROSE) device allows it to serve as a novel drug delivery system. In this article, we describe the off-label administration of amphotericin B and cenegermin by instillation in the PROSE device reservoir for the treatment of Candida keratitis in the setting of a persistent epithelial defect.
期刊介绍:
Eye & Contact Lens: Science and Clinical Practice is the official journal of the Contact Lens Association of Ophthalmologists (CLAO), an international educational association for anterior segment research and clinical practice of interest to ophthalmologists, optometrists, and other vision care providers and researchers. Focusing especially on contact lenses, it also covers dry eye disease, MGD, infections, toxicity of drops and contact lens care solutions, topography, cornea surgery and post-operative care, optics, refractive surgery and corneal stability (eg, UV cross-linking). Peer-reviewed and published six times annually, it is a highly respected scientific journal in its field.
