Progesterone (PG) diminishes free radical damage and thus can afford protection against oxidative stress affecting the retina. The therapeutic use of PG is limited because it is a highly hydrophobic steroid hormone with very low solubility in water. This is the main drawback for the therapeutic application of PG at ocular level. The aims of this study were (i) to analyze if PG causes ocular irritation (ii) to validate a HPLC method to determine PG in ex vivo studies and (iii) to evaluate PG permeation through cornea and sclera.
