Drugs in Antiglaucoma Implant
DURYSTA (bimatoprost)
The term "antiglaucoma implant" is an umbrella descriptive grouping rather than a single established pharmacological class, encompassing both surgical drainage devices and sustained-release pharmaceutical delivery systems.
When used in reference to pharmacotherapy, these formulations—such as intracameral prostaglandin analog implants—are designed to deliver targeted medication directly into the ocular tissues over an extended duration.
Their primary therapeutic mechanism is to enhance aqueous humor outflow, thereby lowering intraocular pressure.
They are primarily indicated to manage open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension while circumventing the compliance challenges and ocular surface toxicity associated with daily topical eye drops.
