Defense against photooxidative and other oxidative processes with actinoquinol/ hyaluronic acid drops

Central Corneal Thickness Considered an Index of Corneal Hydration of the UVB Irradiated Rabbit Cornea as Influenced by UVB Absorber

Article specifications

This clinical trial was published in 2012 in Physiol Res. (IF2012: 1.62) by Czech specialists. A method of ultrasonic pachymetry for daily examination of central corneal thickness as an index of corneal hydration of the rabbit cornea repeatedly irradiated by UVB radiation (312 nm, daily dose of 0.25 J/cm(2) during three or four days) as influenced by UVB absorber (actinoquinol combined with hyaluronic acid) dropped on the ocular surface during irradiation.

 

Results

It is suggested that actinoquinol/ hyaluronic acid drops might be helpful for the human eye in the defence against photooxidative and other oxidative processes.
