Preliminary study on the effect of commercially available eye toners on rabbit corneal keratocytes proliferation and migration

Devoid of scientific proofs, the use of commercially available natural product-based eye toners for therapeutic purposes incites controversies surrounding it. This study aims to evaluate the effect of selected commercially available eye toners on in vitro cellular model using rabbits’ corneal kerato...

This study aims to evaluate the effect of selected commercially available eye toners on in vitro cellular model using rabbits’ corneal keratocytes. The primary cells were cultivated in culture media supplemented with or without eye toners as control. Growth kinetic profile, cells proliferation assay, scratch assay and immunocytochemistry analysis were performed in comparing both culture media.
