Feasibility of drug delivery to the eye's posterior segment by topical instillation of PLGA nanoparticles

We investigated the delivery of drugs to the posterior segment of the eye by non-invasive topical instillation using submicron-sized poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) nanoparticles (NPs). Surface-modified PLGA NPs were developed to improve the drug delivery efficiency to the retina and were admi...
