Scientists at Newcastle University have developed a groundbreaking method to 3D-print human corneas using a unique bio-ink composed of stem cells, collagen, and alginate. The technique takes less than 10 minutes per cornea and can be precisely tailored to fit each patient’s eye.
With over 10 million people worldwide in need of corneal transplants, this innovation could dramatically reduce transplant wait times and restore vision to millions suffering from corneal blindness or injury.
The Future of Eye Care
These 3D-printed corneas offer a scalable and ethical solution to donor shortages, paving the way for personalized, on-demand eye care and regenerative medicine.
