Methods and Compositions for Achieving Sustained Intraocular Drug Delivery via Melanin Binding

Unmet Need / Invention Novelty: Intravitreal injection is the gold standard for achieving drug delivery to the posterior segment of the eye. However, achieving effective delivery is challenging and the injections need to be performed frequently which hinders patient compliance. There therefore exists an unmet need to develop a formulation for intraocular...

Compositions and methods for controlled release suprachoroidal drug delivery

Unmet Need / Invention Novelty: Traditional routes of administrating drugs to the eye are limited by lack of efficiency, frequent side effects, and poor patient tolerance of repeated injections into the eye. Injections into the suprachoroidal space (SCS) is an attractive strategy to overcome these limitations and to provide for targeted delivery of...
