Polydopamine Nanoparticles as Mimicking RPE Melanin for the Protection of Retinal Cells Against Blue Light‐Induced Phototoxicity

Abstract Exposure of the eyes to blue light can induce the overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the retina and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells, potentially leading to pathological damage of age‐related macular degeneration (AMD). While the melanin in RPE cells absorbs blue light...
