Evaluation of moxifloxacin-induced cytotoxicity on human corneal endothelial cells

Abstract Moxifloxacin hydrochloride (MXF) is widely used for the prevention of bacterial endophthalmitis after intraocular surgeries. However, the safety issue of intracameral injection of MXF for human corneal endothelial cells (HCECs) is still debatable. In this study, we investigated concentratio...
