Tailoring therapeutic properties of silver nanoparticles for effective bacterial keratitis treatment

• Silver nanoparticles are formulated as intrinsically therapeutic nano-agents. • Influence of particle size on its interaction with biological entities is studied. • The better ocular biocompatibility is observed for larger silver nanoparticles. • Antibacterial and antiangiogenic activities are compromised by particle sizes. • Moderate sized nanoparticles perform the best in alleviating bacterial keratitis. The formulation of nanoparticles with...
