The invention relates to sustained release implants and to methods for treating eyes, particularly the eyes of mammals having eye disorders or diseases. By using the implants and methods described herein, the delivery of the one or more bioactive agents can be localized at a desired treatment site, particularly the choroid and the retina.

The present invention provides methods of treating viral infection of the eye or posterior ocular condition including administering a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound described in the present application. In some embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition is topically administered. In another embodiment, the pharmaceutical composition is orally administered or intraocularly administered.

The present invention provides for the treatment, prevention, and / or reduction of a risk of a disease, disorder, or condition in which aldehyde toxicity is implicated in the pathogenesis, including ocular disorders, skin disorders, conditions associated with injurious effects from blister agents, and autoimmune, inflammatory, neurological and cardiovascular diseases by the use of a primary amine to scavenge toxic aldehydes, such as MDA and HNE.

A composition for preventing or treating an eye disease includes adiponectin as an active ingredient. Adiponectin as an active ingredient is eventually revealed to show prevention or therapeutic efficacies for eye diseases such as dry eye (syndrome), inflammatory eye disease and side effects due to the use of contact lenses by promoting tear secretion, alleviating ocular surface irregularities, decreasing inflammatory cytokines on the ocular surface and lacrimal gland, and increasing conjunctival goblet cell density. In addition, the composition having eye contact lubrication effects may be used as cleaners or lubricants for preventing non-bacterial inflammation due to wearing contact lenses.

The instant invention provides methods and compositions for the treatment of infection or infectious colonization of the eyelid and / or ocular surface for the treatment and prevention of ocular disorders and eyelid disorders.

Several embodiments disclosed herein relate to the delivery of therapeutic nucleic acids to an ocular tissue in order to provide a therapeutic effect to reduce symptoms of or otherwise alleviate an ocular disorder. In particular embodiments, plasmid DNA is delivered to the cells of the trabecular meshwork in order to ameliorate increasing intraocular pressure. Devices and systems to accomplish this delivery are also disclosed.

A quick-acting eye drops without irritation and drug tolerance for treating conjunctivitis, trachoma, keratitis, dacryocystitis, visional fatigue, etc is prepared from coptis root, pale butterflybush flower and monoxydine hydrochloride. Its advantages are high curative effect and quickly taking its effect.

Provided is a composition for prophylaxis or treatment of an eye disease comprising a compound represented by General Formula I:S-(MS)p-(MS)q  General Formula Iwherein S represents sialic acid, and (MS)p and (MS)q independently represent a monosaccharide residue.The compound used as the active ingredient inhibits expression of MMP-9 and inflammation-mediated cytokines (IL-1β, TNF-α, etc.) in corneal epithelial cells and inhibits VEGF-mediated VEGFR-2 activation in human retinal endothelial cells (HREC), thereby exhibiting prophylactic or therapeutic activity for eye diseases such as dry eye syndrome, inflammatory eye disease, neovascularization-associated eye disease and side effects of wearing of contact lenses. Also, because it has no cytotoxicity or skin side effect, the provided composition may be safely used as a pharmaceutical composition, a neutraceutical composition or a food composition. In addition, the composition may be used as a cleaner or a lubricant for contact lenses since it has nonbacterial antiinflammatory activity and ocular contact lubricating activity.
