Details will be disclosed on May 5, 2026 from 1:15 pm to 3 pm at the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology Convention (ARVO), Denver, Colorado.
BEDFORD, MA, UNITED STATES, April 29, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Bedford, MA-based Integral BioSystems will present data on OcuHeal-UV400+, an innovative, UV-blocking, antioxidant eyedrop at the Annual ARVO Convention to be held May 3-May 7, 2026 at Denver, Colorado.
The OcuHeal-UV400+ product is one in the pipeline of products-in-development, based on a lipid nanoparticle (LNP) platform technology developed by Integral BioSystems. OcuHeal-UV400+ product incorporates a GRAS (generally regarded as safe), plant-based compound into nanostructured, liquid-crystalline lipid nanoparticles. The compound has a high molar extinction coefficient and blocks both UV-A and UV-B, with further blocking of blue light generated by the encapsulated LNP. The encapsulated compound is biocompatible with, and protective of corneal epithelial cells, quenches reactive free radicals generated by various stressors (like particulate pollution) and elicits anti-fibrotic healing in injured corneal tissues. With worldwide reports of ocular tissue disorders caused by UV radiation (both UVA and UVB), this product promises to be transformational. Furthermore, this product, when commercialized, will have clinical utility to persons suffering from digital strain from prolonged computer use.
