A presentation

Aug. 27, 2020 | Duration: 1 hr 23 mins.

Lipids and lipid-soluble molecules are essential components of the cells and tissues that form the eye. Proper synthesis, turnover and metabolism of lipids and lipid-soluble molecules are necessary for eye function, and dysfunction in these processes underlie a variety of significant, common and often debilitating eye diseases. In this special webinar, three experts highlight topics related to lipids and lipid metabolism in the eye.
