Purpose: To evaluate the safety and feasibility of intrastromal injection of human corneal stromal keratocytes (CSKs) and its therapeutic effect on a rodent early corneal opacity model. Methods: Twelve research-grade donor corneas were used in primary culture to generate quiescent CSKs and activated...
