Patent

CA 2686720

A scleral lens is provided with a drug that is retained in the reservoir of fluid between the scleral lens and the cornea. This system can be used to deliver drugs not currently used topically because of poor bioavailability, to increase bioavailability of drugs used in patients already wearing a scleral lens, and to improve bioavailability in patients who are not currently wearing the lens. Dosing can be provided less frequently, thus decreasing the risk of non- compliance.

L'invention concerne une lentille sclérale avec un médicament retenu dans un réservoir de liquide entre la lentille sclérale et la cornée. Ce système peut être utilisé pour distribuer des médicaments qui ne sont pas utilisés actuellement de manière topique en raison d'une faible biodisponibilité, pour augmenter la biodisponibilité de médicaments utilisés chez des patients portant déjà une lentille sclérale, et pour augmenter la biodisponibilité chez des patients qui ne portent pas actuellement de lentilles. Le dosage peut être réalisé moins fréquemment, ce qui diminue les risques de non compatibilité.
