An ophthalmic drug delivery device (10) having a first endand a second end (Figure 3), an injection port (24), a reservoir, (22), and a sleeve (26) is disclosed. The injection port is for sealingly engaging a needle (102) of a syringe (100), which isfor providing a fluid (104) comprising a pharmaceutically active agent. The reservoir is disposed within the device, is flui dly coupled to the injection port, and has an opening (25) for communicating the fluid to an outer surface of a sclera (58) of an eye (52). The sleeve is for engaging the device proximate overlapping portions of the first end and the second end for forming a generally ring-shaped three- dimensional geometry upon implantation of the device on the outer surface of the sclera. The device is useful for the treatment of a disease of the posterior segment (68) of the eye.
