Ciolino JB et al. - The majority of ocular medications are delivered to the eye topically, often in the form of a solution, or eye drop. Contact lenses could potentially also be used to deliver medications to the eye. Recently, progress has been made in developing a drug-eluting contact lens. Different designs have been proposed and several offer the hope of expanding the therapeutic armamentarium for eye care providers.
