An ophthalmic formulation is provided for the prevention and treatment of adverse ocular conditions, including presbyopia, arcus senilis, age-related macular degeneration, and other conditions associated with aging. The formulation is also useful in the prevention and treatment of other adverse ocular conditions such as those associated with oxidative and/or free radical damage within the eye; these conditions can involve a condition, disease, or disorder of the cornea, retina, lens, sclera, anterior segment, or posterior segment of the eye. In one embodiment, the formulation contains at least 0.6 wt. % of a biocompatible chelating agent, an effective permeation enhancing amount of an ophthalmic permeation enhancer such as methylsulfonylmethane (MSM), an anti-AGE agent, i.e., a compound that serves to reduce the presence of advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs) in the eye, and a pharmaceutically acceptable ophthalmic carrier suited to the particular formulation type (e.g., eye drops or ointments). Preferred components of the formulation are multifunctional and naturally occurring.

L'invention concerne une formulation ophtalmique destinée à prévenir et traiter des pathologies oculaires indésirables, notamment la presbytie, l'arc sénile de la cornée, la dégénérescence maculaire associée à l'âge et d'autres pathologies associées à l'âge. La formulation est également utilisée dans la prévention et le traitement d'autres pathologies oculaires indésirables, notamment celles associées à une lésion oxydative et/ou par radicaux libres de l'oeil ; ces pathologies peuvent impliquer une pathologie, une maladie ou un trouble de la cornée, de la rétine, du cristallin, de la sclère, du segment antérieur ou du segment postérieur de l'oeil. Dans un mode de réalisation, la formulation renferme au moins 0,6 % en poids d'un agent chélateur biocompatible, une quantité améliorant la perméation efficace d'un amplificateur de perméation ophtalmique, notamment un méthylsulfonylméthane (MSM), un agent anti-âge, à savoir un composé servant à réduire la présence de produits ultimes à glycation avancée (AGE) dans l'oeil, et un support ophtalmique pharmaceutiquement acceptable convenant au type de formulation particulier (p.ex. des gouttes ou des onguents pour les yeux). Les composants préférés de la formulation sont polyvalents et naturels.
