These findings establish EGT as a potent, multi-mechanistic antioxidant characterized by high stability, ocular safety, and exceptional posterior segment penetrance via noninvasive eye drops. By overcoming key delivery limitations, EGT presents a promising therapeutic strategy for oxidative stress-related ocular diseases such as age-related macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy. Further studies are warranted to evaluate its long-term efficacy and clinical translation potential.
