Nanocapsule-based ocular therapy
Abstract:
A method of macular disease treatment (500) may include introducing nanocapsules into a body of a patient (502). The nanocapsules may be introduced such that the nanocapsules circulate through at least a portion of a body of the patient. A therapeutic substance and a colorant may be encapsulated into the nanocapsules. After a portion of the nanocapsules enters choroidal neovessels of an eye of the patient, the method may include emitting a pulsed laser radiation through a pupil of the eye (504). Additionally, after a portion of the nanocapsules enters choroidal neovessels of an eye of the patient, the method may include heating the portion of the nanocapsules present in the eye (506) such that at least a portion of the nanocapsules transfer phase and release the therapeutic substance.
