ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to the utilization of a highly fluorinated oligomeric alkane as a therapeutic agent in ophthalmology, the alkane having the general formula [—RF(CH2)nCR1—CR2—]x, wherein RFis a linear or branched perfluorinated alkyl chain C2F5to C12F23, R1and R2are independently selected from the group consisting of H, CH3, C2H5and C3H7, n is selected from the numbers 0, 1 and 2, and x is a number between 2 and 6, with a molar mass of at least 750. According to the invention, a pharmacological agent is provided that is used in ophthalmology and that causes little or no damage to the retina even when used over a long period.
