Prof. Zeev Zalevsky of the Kofkin Faculty of Engineering, Prof. Jean Paul Lellouche, of the Department of Chemistry, and Dr. David Smadja, a research associate at BINA and Director of Research and Innovation at Shaare Zedek Medical Center developed eye-drops that have been found to repair the corneas and improve short and long sightedness. The nanoparticle solution called as “nanodrops” was successfully used on pigs’ corneas.
