A coated, drug eluting ocular conformer includes an ocular conformer and at least one substantially purified anti-fibrosis agent. The ocular conformer is formed from a base material having inner and outer sides, including apical and basal portions configured to contact one or more conjunctival tissues in an eye of a patient. The anti-fibrosis agent is formulated into at least one ophthalmic medicament layer over at least one side of the ocular conformer or is impregnated within the base material of the ocular conformer. The device may be configured to release the anti-fibrosis agent from one or both sides of the ocular conformer. An elution control layer may be included to facilitate controlled release of the anti-fibrosis agent. In addition, an adhesion promoting layer may be included in the device to promote adhesion of polymeric layers to the base material or to ocular tissues during delivery. The coated, drug eluting ocular conformer may be used to reduce scarring in the eye, typically by applying the device to the eye following eye surgery, an eye injury caused by chemical, thermal or mechanical trauma, or an eye disease or condition associated with scarring. |
