| Core Tip |
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitor is one of the pharmacological options for treating corneal neovascularization (CoNV) - the second major cause of blindness. The present study conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis support the use of Bevacizumab in the treatment of CoNV. The results of our study supports that anti-VEGF agents are effective in reducing CoNV, best-corrected visual acuity, and graft rejection/failure rate. In addition, our study found evidence supporting the improvement of visual acuity which was not significant in the previous systematic review and meta-analysis. |
