RESUMEN
Controlled release or controlled drug delivery comprises the set of techniques and approaches to improve bioavailability through improved safety and/or efficacy using a carrier material for the molecule of interest. The predictability and tunability of these carriers make them ideal for protection, localization, and sustained presentation of a wide range of therapeutics, including growth factors implicated in cell survival and regeneration. Here we provide a method for encapsulating epidermal growth factor in a degradable polymer matrix for delivery to the cornea. Additional notes are included to demonstrate the wide-ranging capabilities of such methods for other materials, therapeutic agents, and sites of action within the eye.
