Abstract:
The present invention relates to an apparatus, system and method for, and for providing, intraocular delivery of an active agent. The apparatus, system and method may include an implantable scaffold and an active agent associated with the implantable scaffold. The implantable scaffold and the active agent may be configured to be completely contained within the eye upon implantation. The implantable scaffold may be a mechanical scaffold, or the implantable scaffold may be a chemical scaffold.

Claim (Index 30):
An intraocular active agent delivery system, comprising:\n an implantable mechanical scaffold that includes an interior reservoir and is formed from a material that is suitable for intraocular implantation and takes the shape of a cylinder; an external reservoir that is separate from the implantable mechanical scaffold, configured to be positioned outside of an eye when the implantable mechanical scaffold is implanted in the eye, and is fluidly connected to the interior reservoir via a tube, and includes an injection port; an active agent at least physically associated with said implantable mechanical scaffold, wherein said implantable mechanical scaffold and said active agent are configured to be completely contained within the eye upon implantation; and wherein the internal reservoir is configured to be refilled with the active agent via the injection port of the external reservoir after the implantation of the implantable mechanical scaffold in the eye.
