Hydrogel-based drug delivery systems (DDS) offer promising alternatives for treating ocular diseases by overcoming the limitations of traditional therapies, such as low bioavailability, frequent administration, and invasiveness. Hydrogels, with their high biocompatibility ability to respond external stimuli, can provide sustained targeted delivery. This review highlights unique properties hydrogels, including swelling behavior, porosity, mechanical strength, making them suitable various applications. The classification hydrogels based on cross-linking methods, origins, stimuli responsiveness is discussed, emphasizing potential in dry eye disease (DED), glaucoma, corneal alkali burns, neovascularization. Notable advances include thermosensitive pH-responsive which have shown results preclinical studies.

Posterior segment ocular diseases, such as diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration, and retinal vein occlusion, are leading causes of vision impairment blindness worldwide. Effective management these conditions remains a formidable challenge due to the unique anatomical physiological barriers eye, including blood-retinal barrier rapid drug clearance mechanisms. To address hurdles, nanostructured delivery systems proposed overcome barriers, target retina, enhance permeation while ensuring controlled release. Traditional therapeutic approaches, intravitreal injections, pose significant drawbacks, patient discomfort, poor compliance, potential complications. Therefore, understanding physiology mechanism eye could aid in design novel formulations that be noninvasive deliver drugs reach site is pivotal for effective treatment strategies. This review focuses on recent advances formulation strategies posterior delivery, highlighting their limitations. Furthermore, nanocarrier in-situ gel, niosomes, hydrogels, dendrimers, liposomes, nanoparticles, nanoemulsions more effectively selectively explored, supplemented with illustrative examples, figures, tables. aims provide insights into current state emphasizing need interdisciplinary approaches develop patient-centric, minimally invasive, solutions.

Abstract In this study, a series of benzophenone (BP)‐based photoinitiators (PIs), designated as BP‐Sn, were synthesized by the integration small molecule hydrogen donors into BP scaffold. This design aims to minimize reliance on co‐initiators, reduce potential odors and toxicities, enhance initiation efficiency PIs under LED irradiation. Additionally, incorporation thioether linkages imparts distinctive dual functionality PIs, enabling them exhibit both hydrogen‐abstracting (Type II) bond‐breaking I) characteristics. The photophysical photoinitiation properties BP‐Sn evaluated using electron paramagnetic resonance, UV‐visible spectrophotometry, real‐time Fourier‐transform Infrared spectroscopy. findings demonstrate that remarkable efficacy single‐component PI for free‐radical polymerization, achieving final conversion approaching 95% rate exceeding 20% s −1 polymerization tripropylene glycol diacrylate without need additional co‐initiators. Furthermore, experiment revealed exposure 365 nm light just 2 min results in formation colorless well‐defined patterned texture, with thickness 5 mm diameter 7 cm, demonstrating its practical applications.

Fruit spoilage caused by oxidation and microbial infection exacerbates resource wastage. Although starch films including chitosan possessed admirable biocompatibility owing to great biodegradability compared with conventional plastics, deficient antibacterial antioxidant capacity restricted food shelf life. Herein, an environmentally friendly film (CS/G-CDs) was constructed carbon dots derived from Cirsii Herba (CDs), which formed through high affinity resulting hydrogen bonding between molecules hydroxyl originating CDs. The prepared CDs presented homogeneous monodisperse spherical structures ultrasmall size, providing favorable conditions for uniform formation. Encouragingly, the of CS/G-CDs increased 5.00-fold, followed rate up 97.0%. Dramatically, revealed glorious UV shielding efficacy (99.9% UVB 98.2% UVA), its preservation time blueberries remarkably extended 8 days longer than that film. Overall, Chinese herb-derived exhibited magnified antibacterial/antioxidant properties biocompatibility, provided a promising strategy sustainable development packaging materials.

Hemostatic materials that can rapidly control bleeding without causing secondary damage or sharp pain upon removal are receiving increasing demands in acute trauma treatments and first-aid supplies. Here, we report the development of a dynamic silicone hydrogel coating on medical gauze to enable rapid hemostasis synergistic anti-blood adhesion properties. The spontaneously form oriented cross-linked structures fibrous through solution-processing method achieve macroscopic superhydrophobicity with microscopic surface slipperiness, resulting excellent on-wound peeling force at ~0 millinewton. enables unique integration advanced features including instant control, adhesion, air permeability. proposed strategy is also suitable for scalable production, making it promising applications management.
