BIODEGRADABLE OCULAR IMPLANTS AND METHODS FOR TREATING OCULAR CONDITIONS

摘要

Biodegradable ocular implants are described. The ocular implants include a bioactive agent that can be released within the eye to treat an ocular condition or indication. The implants can be used for the administration of a bioactive agent over prolonged periods of time. In some aspects the implants are formed of a matrix of natural biodegradable polysaccharides.
