Researchers of which institution have recently developed a method to treat retinal tears and diabetic retinopathy?

By employing modest laser-induced convection to enhance drug transport into the retina, researchers at IIT Madras have found a novel way to treat diabetic retinopathy and retinal tears. With an emphasis on heat and mass transmission, they used simulations to investigate various treatment modalities. About 11 million Indians with retinal diseases potentially benefit from this novel technique. Retinal tears, diabetic retinopathy, macular oedema, and retinal vein occlusion are among the disorders that are being treated with laser-based methods.
