  • Retinal tissue regeneration
    Patent number: 10569100
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method for regenerating retinal tissue which includes preparing a luminescent scaffold, implanting the luminescent scaffold in a portion of retina, for example subretinal area, emitting a green light from the luminescent nanoparticles in a luminescence phenomenon, and absorbing the emitted light by retinal cells for regenerating retinal tissue by stimulating the retinal cells. Moreover, preparing a luminescent scaffold may comprise synthesizing a plurality of luminescent particles, dispersing the luminescent particles in a polymeric matrix to form a luminescent composite, and electrospinning the luminescent composite to form the luminescent scaffold.
    Type: Grant
