Summary of the Thesis:
The thesis aimed to compare the therapeutic efficacy of the antifungal drug Voriconazole with natural extracts such as green tea and truffle extract in the treatment of fungal keratitis. This condition is a significant challenge in ophthalmology due to the difficulty of treatment and, at times, the limited response to conventional medications.
The research holds the potential to provide innovative and more comprehensive therapeutic solutions for fungal keratitis, particularly for those seeking natural or complementary treatment options alongside conventional antifungal medications.
