The technology invented by researchers at the University of Reading produces a realistic occular surface from human stem cells analogous to a human cornea. Our technology uses a plastically-compacted collagen gel as a substrate for the growth of corneal cells. Cells grown on such a substrate can be cultured to produce an artificial ocular surface...
