Abstract
Tissue engineering has developed rapidly in the last 20 years and has shown a promising future in many aspects of ophthalmology, such as the ocular surface and the retina. But also it has been confronted with some major scientific problems. Tissue engineering conjunctiva and corneal epithelia have been clinically well applied in the reconstruction of the ocular surface; immortalizing corneal endothelia may be the key problem in creating tissue engineering cornea; and the future of tissue engineering retina may be not as good as that of artificial retina. This paper reviews current research and application in some major fields of ocular tissue engineering.
