De acuerdo con los investigadores de la Universidad de Linköping (LiU) y de la empresa LinkoCare Life Sciences AB, los resultados demuestran que se es capaz de crear un implante como alternativa al transplante de córneas humanas donadas.

“Es posible desarrollar un biomaterial que cumpla todos los criterios para ser utilizado como implante humano, que pueda producirse en masa y almacenarse hasta dos años y así llegar a más personas con problemas de visión", se lee en un comunicado emitido por Neil Lagali.

Actualmente, más de 12.7 millones de personas alrededor del mundo son ciegas a causa de sus córneas dañadas, por lo que el objetivo de dicho estudio es devolver la visión a personas por medio de un implante de bioingeniería.
