Novel Bioreducible Polymer for Nucleic Acid Delivery to Eyes and Beyond
Unmet NeedInherited retinal diseases (IRDs) are a group of disorders with genetic and clinical heterogeneity and are the leading cause of vision loss. [1, 20] ] Collectively, IRDs have an estimated incidence of 1:2000. [1] Gene therapies targeting IRD, including FDA approved Luxturna, are injected directly into the retina to correct the underlying genetic...

A Natural Anti-inflammatory Treatment to Reduce Corneal Scarring and Dry Eye
Unmet Need:According to the WHO, approximately 4.9 million people globally are affected by bacteria that leads to corneal scarring of the eye (WHO). Additionally, in the United States alone 4.88 million people age 50 and older suffer from dry eye, which may lead to scarring of the cornea (Healthline). The cornea serves as a window to the eye, and transparency...

Automated Surgical Learning and Debriefing Platform
Unmet NeedA cataract is a condition denoted by the blurring of the lens of the eye that accounts for 51% of blindness and 33% of visual impairments worldwide (see WHO). The number of people in the U.S. with cataracts is expected to double from 24.4 million in 2010 to a projected 50 million in 2050 (see NIH). Surgery is the only corrective treatment...

Alpha 2 Collagen VIII (Col8a2) Q455K Knock-in Mouse Model of Fuchs Endothelial Corneal Dystrophy
Unmet Need:Fuchs’ endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) is a genetic disease affecting the cornea and is estimated to affect 7% of the adult population (see Aiello et al. 2022). The first genetic defect shown to cause FECD was a point mutation in the alpha 2 collagen 8 gene (Col8a2). The disease results in a buildup of fluid in the cornea and causes...

Low Cost Manual Cataract Fragmentation Device for Improved Access and Outcomes
Unmet Need / Invention Novelty: 17 M people are blind and 83.5 M have moderate-to-severe visual impairment due to cataracts, which disproportionately affect individuals in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). The current gold standard, phacoemulsification, requires significant initial capital expense and equipment and recurring costs for consumables...

Methods and Compositions for Achieving Sustained Intraocular Drug Delivery via Melanin Binding
Unmet Need / Invention Novelty: Intravitreal injection is the gold standard for achieving drug delivery to the posterior segment of the eye. However, achieving effective delivery is challenging and the injections need to be performed frequently which hinders patient compliance. There therefore exists an unmet need to develop a formulation for intraocular...

Compositions and methods for controlled release suprachoroidal drug delivery
Unmet Need / Invention Novelty: Traditional routes of administrating drugs to the eye are limited by lack of efficiency, frequent side effects, and poor patient tolerance of repeated injections into the eye. Injections into the suprachoroidal space (SCS) is an attractive strategy to overcome these limitations and to provide for targeted delivery of...

Compensating for Polarization Changes Introduced by Components with Retardation in Polarization Sensitive Retinal Scanning Systems
Unmet NeedThe most sensitive part of the human retina, the fovea, changes the polarization state of light when scanned with a low-power polarized beam of light. This produces a particular pattern which can be used for eye tracking or monitoring central fixation. The latter is useful in diagnosing strabismus (cross-sightedness) and amblyopia (“lazy eye”),...
