Ophthalmics
Ocular diseases can be various. Some, such as DED (dry eye disease), only affect the ocular surface whilst other common diseases are more related to the retina (e. g. macular degeneration) or even the inside of the eye (e. g. uveitis).
Not just the types of diseases are various but also the treating options. From treating symptoms to enhancing or blocking functionality by injecting proteins to next generation drug technologies to even cure chronic and hereditary diseases (e. g. retinitis pigmentosa).
