Abstract:
The present disclosure generally relates to local therapies for the eye and, more particularly, to shaped controlled-release ocular implant devices, including methods for making and using such devices, for delivery of therapeutic agents to the eye. A molded two-layer ocular implant comprises a therapeutic agent for treatment or prevention of a disorder of the eye. The implant comprises a polymer layer and a silicone adhesive layer with a therapeutic agent interspersed therein and joined to the polymer layer. This implant is for placement in the sub-Tenon's space of the eye and provides sustained release of the therapeutic agent during the treatment or prevention of the disorder of the eye.
