About

NeurOptic's lead product for glaucoma is based on an FDA-approved drug indicated as therapy for neurodegenerative disease. NeurOptic is developing an ophthalmic formulation for glaucoma treatment established on the prolonged residence time of a monoamine oxidase inhibitor on the ocular surface and providing sustained delivery and constant effect of the drug for two months. Preliminary pre-clinical studies showed that the novel topical treatment of NeurOptic's product exerted a significant effect on high levels of intraocular pressure and may prevent neuronal damage in the eye.
