FIGURE 3.

Clinical findings after intrastromal injection of 25 μL of BSS or AAV-GFP using either the 31-G or PCI needle in vivo. A, Clinical color images of the injection site. The injection resulted in corneal opacity immediately after injection, which resolved by day 1 after injection (n = 12 injections/group). B, Adverse events during the injection procedure. During the injection, AC perforation (46% vs. 8%) and injection site leakage (100% vs. 46%) were more frequent using the 31-G versus the PCI microneedle. C, Mean cumulative ocular inflammatory scores demonstrate only a mild inflammatory response at 1 day after injection, which resolved completely by day 5.
