Abstract

The eyelid-related disease of blepharitis remains a tricky ocular disorder and affects patient compliance. However, there is no available and effective treatment, making it extremely challenging. Herein, an antibacterial system based on antibiotic delivery was developed and applied in a blepharitis model induced by bacteria. The antibacterial tests against Staphylococcus aureus both in vitro and in vivo demonstrated that the system shows a favorable bactericidal effect. Then, histological evaluation indicated that the system shows both antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects. This facile design provided an effective ocular infection management, which displays a promising prospect while addressing other complex ocular disorders.
