Biomaterials and Regenerative Medicine in Ophthalmology - (Woodhead Publishing Biomaterials) 3rd Edition (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Biomaterials and Regenerative Medicine in Ophthalmology, 3rd Edition is thoroughly revised and expanded, including 8 new chapters which offer greater focus on corneal and retinal reconstruction, using specialised ophthalmic biomaterials. The book is divided into five essential parts, beginning with an introduction and outlining the biomaterial-ocular surface interface, laying the foundation with materials, properties, tissue interaction, and design coverage. The subsequent sections systematically cover strategies for reconstruction, before exploring other applications, as well as industry and clinical perspectives. Detailed methods for the design and development of ophthalmic biomaterials are outlined, along with supporting industry and clinical case studies, to offer practical insights and allow for improved translation into research and therapeutics. Biomaterials and Regenerative Medicine in Ophthalmology, 3rd Edition is suitable for researchers, academics, and postgraduate students wanting to gain a deeper understanding of ophthalmic biomaterials and regenerative medicine in ophthalmology. This book may also be of interest to R&D groups developing novel ophthalmic biomaterials, as well as clinicians and ophthalmologists with an interest in biomaterials and regenerative strategies.
