American Journal of Ophthalmology Sep 04, 2020

Kaur S, Sarma P, Kaur H, et al. - In this systematic review and meta-analysis, researchers tested the effectiveness and safety of topical cysteamine ophthalmic solution for corneal cystinosis.

In terms of therapy response, conventional cysteamine (0.1% to 0.3%) performed better than placebo/control. Cysteamine (0.55%) was better than cystamine (0.55%) in terms of decreasing corneal cystine density and the viscous Cystadrops (0.55%) was better than the standard formulation (0.1%).
