The current understanding on the clinical efficacy of Rho-associated protein kinase (ROCK) inhibitor for treating Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy is summarized to clarify whether the "off-label" ROCK-inhibitor eye-drop application are appropriate. ROCK-inhibitor eye drops may eventually be deemed a cutting-edge therapy for Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy patients with acute corneal endothelial defect.
目前对于 Rho 相关蛋白激酶(ROCK)抑制剂治疗 Fuchs 内皮角膜营养不良的临床疗效的理解进行了总结,以明确“超适应证”ROCK 抑制剂滴眼应用是否合适。ROCK 抑制剂滴眼剂最终可能被视为伴有急性角膜内皮缺损的 Fuchs 内皮角膜营养不良患者的一种前沿治疗方法。
