Sponsor's own description
This study focuses on glaucoma therapy by drug eluting contact lenses. The contact lens will be loaded with timolol maleate and dorzolamide hydrochloride, both of which are commonly used ophthalmic drugs. Additionally, the lenses will contain vitamin E ((+) α-tocopherol) as an additive for achieving extended release of the drugs. This study is to assess the safety of the drug loaded contact lenses and the effectiveness. Effectiveness will be a drop in IOP after using the lenses.
