Physical Parameters Influencing the Rate of Subretinal Injection: A Microfluidic Analysis
Purpose: Subretinal injection during vitrectomy has become an important technique owing to the growing number of cell and gene therapy trials for retinal disease. Reducing the injection rate can mitigate trauma or shear forces on the retinal pigment epithelium, yet many surgeons...
