Abstract: A composition of botulinum toxin is claimed which can penetrate into the ocular surface inclusive of a penetration through a conjunctiva, cornea, and other structures. This composition allows for a maximal penetration of a topical preparation of botulinum toxin which serves to reduce the need for frequent allergy drops for the treatment of ocular surface disease and other conditions causing ocular surface inflammation or deep ocular inflammation. No puncture of the needle is necessary for the administration. Herein describes a novel composition using several principles based on composition, method of application, which enhances the effectiveness of the penetration.

Abstract: Formulations and methods of treatment are disclosed for prevention and/or treatment of visual loss from age-related macular degeneration. The disclosed formulations include botulinum neurotoxin (e.g., botulinum neurotoxin or a fragment thereof, either in pure form or with one or more peptide fragments and/or neurotoxin associated proteins). In some embodiments, the disclosed formulations also include one or more anti-VEGF agents. The disclosed formulations may be applied to an intraocular or extraocular region of a patient.

Abstract: Formulations and methods of treatment are disclosed for prevention and/or treatment of visual loss from age-related macular degeneration. The disclosed formulations include botulinum neurotoxin (e.g., botulinum neurotoxin or a fragment thereof, either in pure form or with one or more peptide fragments and/or neurotoxin associated proteins. In some embodiments, the disclosed formulations are applied to the para orbital or periorbital region of a patient to delay or stop the progression of dry macular degeneration. The methods described herein do not involve a direct injection into the eye or subconjunctival region, thus significantly easing both comfort and administration related complications and further preserving barrier functions of retinal layers while also delaying or ceasing the degenerative process to wet conversion.

Abstract: A method of treating depression includes identifying a subject with a pain syndrome for increased responsiveness to the treatment of pain associated with the pain syndrome with botulinum toxin and locally administering a botulinum toxin subcutaneously to a face of the subject, thereby treating said pain. Identification of the pain is made prior to administering botulinum toxin for the treatment of said pain. The subject has a pain syndrome and a condition selected from the group consisting of a depressive disorder, an anxiety disorder and a sleep disorder.

Abstract: Formulations and methods of treatment are disclosed for prevention and/or treatment of visual loss from age-related macular degeneration. The disclosed formulations include botulinum neurotoxin. The disclosed formulations may be applied to an intraocular or extraocular region of a patient. If applied to an extra ocular region of a patient, the botulinum-based pharmaceutical formulation may then be transported to the intra-ocular region of the patient, allowing the active ingredient(s) to penetrate into the choroid, neuro-retina, and/or retinal pigment epithelium without direct injection into the eye, eliminating risk of retinal detachment, retinal break, retinal hemorrhage, and blindness. The methods described herein allow for increased blood flow to the choroid, which improves removal of metabolites and intra retinal fluid and also serves to arrest, reverse and/or delay early and later stages of age-related macular degeneration.

Abstract: A method of treating anxiety disorder comprising the steps of: identifying a subject with one or more symptoms of an anxiety disorder; a botulinum toxin to soft tissues outside the neurocranium using an injection selected from the grouop consisting of: transdermal injection; a subcutaneous injection; and a percutaneous injection; and thereby reducing at least one symptom of anxiety disorder.

Abstract: Methods of using botulinum toxin based pharmaceuticals are disclosed. The methods cause vasodilatation and decreased flow resistance of certain vascular beds for the purpose of increasing blood flow to a region in order to positively impact deterioration from a number of diseases.

Abstract: Formulations and methods of treatment are disclosed for prevention and/or treatment of visual loss from age-related macular degeneration. The disclosed formulations include botulinum neurotoxin. The disclosed formulations may be applied to an intraocular or extraocular region of a patient.

Additionally, relative timing of botulinum application and specific staging of wet, exudative macular degeneration relative to the paraorbital applications are disclosed.

Abstract: The invention provides methods for treating primary disorders of mood and affect, including depressive disorders, anxiety and sleep disorders and CNS disorders comprising the administration of a neurotoxin.

Abstract: A method of treating circadian rhythm disorders includes identifying a subject with a circadian rhythm disorder or at least one symptom of a circadian rhythm disorder and administering an effective amount of a composition comprising a botulinum toxin and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier to said subject thereby reducing at least one symptom of a circadian rhythm disorder.

Data assimilation methods are also disclosed, focusing on enhancing assessment of choriocapillaris and choroidal blood flow to increase sensitivity of OCT-A monitoring. The disclosed methods can be used for treatment and clinical study plans of patients with adult onset macular degeneration and related conditions.
