Diabetes has exhibited dramatic increases during the past decade, registering a global prevalence of 9% among adults aged 18 years and older, and is projected to be the 7th-leading cause of death by 2030. The most popular treatment for type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is multiple daily insulin (MDI) injections. However, researchers globally are work...

There have been increasing incidences of rare ophthalmic diseases (e.g., retinitis pigmentosa, Stargardt disease, Leber congenital amaurosis) and prevalent diseases (e.g., age-related macular degeneration [AMD], geographic atrophy). While clinicians have used small molecules as the conventional therapeutic modality to manage these diseases, the urg...
