Abstract:
Exosomes are lipid-based vesicles carrying bioactive molecules (nucleic acids, proteins, lipids) that mediate intercellular communication. Emerging research explores their potential as therapeutic delivery systems, with bioengineering approaches enhancing stability and efficacy for clinical translation. This review focuses on exosome applications in ocular diseases, particularly engineered targeting strategies, while addressing current limitations and future clinical prospects.
