A proof-of-concept study of a prototype needle that mitigates intraocular pressure rise following intravitreal injection
The study provides proof of concept for a needle design for which surface grooves enhance VR and counteract the effect of IVI on IOP. The safety and efficacy of the prototype needle must be studied further in a clinical trial.
