Objectives: Lipid nanoparticles, as a nucleic acid delivery system, have been used as an alternative to treat ocular diseases, since they can cross the ocular barrier and efficiently transfecting nucleic acids to various cells of the eye. The size influences the transfection of genes, biological distribution, diffusion, and cellular uptake. It is therefore important to establish a relationship between size, formulation, and encapsulation percentage.
