ROCK1 and corneal edema: For both ROCKi groups, the mean total WHR for peeled wounds was approximately 40% slower than the scraped ones, an observation in line with previous reports [37,68,69] in which the lack of the DM ensued a 13–20% slower regeneration in similar ex vivo wound models [37,68], along with a significantly delayed corneal edema resolution in animal studies [68,69].
