Scientists of DEZ, I am thinking of making my own NGF (nerve growth factor) eye drops
So I've been reading a lot of Pubmed articles (terrible for my eyes, btw) on the use of murine NGF on various ocular pathologies. Many studies have shown that they upregulate corneal nerve regeneration after LASIK in rabbits/animal models. Some studies have been done on human eyes, but only in the context...Last edited by hosanna13; 21-Sep-2017, 19:24. Reason: nerve growth factor, cornea, nerves, LASIK, regeneration

It's not that I refused to wear glasses... it's that I felt utterly useless when waking up, going swimming, looking for my glasses, etc. I didn't want to be so...
