To address these hurdles and ensure successful market translation, new companies often form collaborative expert teams encompassing all relevant fields, including regulatory affairs. As medical science continues to evolve, a comprehensive understanding of gene therapy, cell-based delivery, biocompatibility, safety considerations, regulatory aspects, and ongoing clinical trials is essential to fully grasp the safety and effectiveness of these novel ocular therapies.
