Partially degradable glaucoma stent for controlled intraocular pressure reduction

UNMET NEED There are a number of parameters that affect the electrospinning process including polymer, solvent, polymer: solvent ratio, flow rate, voltage, distance to collector, collector type and speed, and needle size.5 Typical electrospinning setups allow for the manufacture of aligned or random fiber mats composed of nano- or micro-fibers. These...
