| 20080292679 | BIODEGRADABLE DRUG DELIVERY SYSTEM - A drug delivery system (DDS) comprised of segmented biodegradable implants sized and suitable for implantation in an ocular region or site and methods for treating ocular conditions. The segmented implants provide an extended release of an active agent at a therapeutically effective amount for a period of time between 50 days and one year, or longer, and permit the DDS to have segments that possess individual and different drug release characteristics. | 11-27-2008 |
| 20090004244 | Iris design as a drug depot for zonal drug delivery by contact lens - A contact lens providing zonal drug delivery includes a lens body having an optical axis and an opaque simulated iris pattern applied to the lens body, about the optical axis, with the pattern including an ophthalmic drug. | 01-01-2009 |
| 20090004245 | Use of an iris simulated layer to allow aesthetic appearance drug loaded contact lens - A drug delivery device includes a contact lens along with a drug delivery zone disposed above an applied axis of the lens. A colored layer is disposed over the drug delivery zone in order to mark a color of the drug delivery zone. | 01-01-2009 |
| 20090118703 | DRUG DELIVERY SYSTEMS AND METHODS - A delivery system includes a housing along with a tip connected to one end of the housing. A first cannula extending from the tip is provided for inserting a rod implant into tissue. A second cannula, concentrically disposed within the first cannula, is utilized to force the rod implant from the first cannula and for ejecting a fluid behind the inserted rod implant in the tissue. | 05-07-2009 |
| 20100015158 | METHOD FOR TREATING ATROPHIC AGE RELATED MACULAR DEGENERATION - Compositions and methods for treating dry age related macular degeneration (dry AMD) by administration to an intraocular location of an anti-neovascular agent (such as bevacizumab) in either a liquid or solid polymeric vehicle (or both), such as a biodegradable hyaluronic acid or PLGA (or PLA). | 01-21-2010 |
| 20100098772 | DRUG DELIVERY SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR TREATING NEOVASCULARIZATION - Anti-angiogenesis compositions, and methods of using such compositions, useful for intraocular to treat neovascularization. The compositions can have viscosities at about 25° C. of at least about 10 cps or about 100 cps at a shear rate of 0.1/second. In a preferred embodiment, the viscosity at 25° C. is in the range of from about 80,000 cps to about 300,000 cps. | 04-22-2010 |
| 20100247606 | INTRAOCULAR SUSTAINED RELEASE DRUG DELIVERY SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR TREATING OCULAR CONDITIONS - Biocompatible, bioerodible sustained release implants and microspheres for intracameral or anterior vitreal placement include an anti-hypertensive agent and a biodegradable polymer effective to treat an ocular hypertensive condition (such as glaucoma) by relapsing therapeutic amount of the anti-hypertensive agent over a period of time between | 09-30-2010 |
| 20110182966 | INTRACAMERAL SUSTAINED RELEASE THERAPEUTIC AGENT IMPLANTS - Described herein are intracameral implants including at least one therapeutic agent for treatment of at least one ocular condition. The implants described herein are not anchored to the ocular tissue, but rather are held in place by currents and gravity present in the anterior chamber of an eye. The implants are preferably polymeric, biodegradable and provide sustained release of at least one therapeutic agent to both the trabecular meshwork and associated ocular tissue and the fluids within the anterior chamber of an eye. | 07-28-2011 |
