a Slit lamp photos of corneas stained with FLS after different treatments on the 12th day. b Statistical results of corneal injury areas from FLS staining images after different treatments. c OCT imaging photos after different treatments on the 12th day. d Statistical results of corneal thickness from OCT images after different treatments. e H&E staining, PAS staining, and IL-6 staining images of ocular sections after different treatments. HE a common histological staining technique, PAS Periodic Acid-Schiff staining, IL-6 inflammatory cytokines. f Cell density in the corneal stroma layer after different treatments calculated from H&E staining images. g Relative expression levels of PAS after different treatments. h Relative expression levels of the inflammatory factor IL-6 after different treatments. e showed one of three independent experiments with similar results. Data for (b, d, f, g, h) were presented as mean values ± SD (n = 3 independent experiments). error bars = SD. Significance of (b, d, f, g, h) were calculated by one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s post hoc test. Source data were provided in Source Data file.
