Abstract: The present disclosure provides an agent for treating or preventing an eye disease such as presbyopia, comprising, as an active ingredient, a sulfur-containing compound having a specified structure.
Abstract: Provided is a pharmaceutical preparation for treatment or prevention of glaucoma or ocular hypertension, comprising 0.0003 to 0.01% (w/v) of isopropyl (6-{[4-(pyrazol-1-yl)benzyl](pyridin-3-ylsulfonyl)aminomethyl}pyridin-2-ylamino)acetate, or a salt thereof.
Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to identify a drug formulation for the treatment or prevention of glaucoma or ocular hypertension, wherein the drug formulation exhibits an effect in patients with drug-refractory glaucoma or ocular hypertension. Sepetaprost is expected to exhibit an excellent intraocular pressure-lowering action in patients with otherwise drug-refractory glaucoma or ocular hypertension. The drug formulation according to the present invention containing sepetaprost as an active ingredient is therefore useful as a drug formulation that can treat or prevent glaucoma or ocular hypertension in patients with otherwise drug-refractory glaucoma or ocular hypertension.
Abstract: The present invention aims to find a pharmaceutical preparation which treats or prevents glaucoma or ocular hypertension and is effective for patients with inadequate efficacies of glaucoma or ocular hypertension therapeutic agents. It has been found that omidenepag, an ester thereof, or a salt thereof has an excellent intraocular pressure lowering efficacy on patients with inadequate efficacies of other glaucoma or ocular hypertension therapeutic agents. Therefore, the omidenepag, the ester thereof, or the salt thereof of the present invention is useful as a pharmaceutical preparation which can treat or prevent glaucoma or ocular hypertension even in patients with inadequate efficacies of other glaucoma or ocular hypertension therapeutic agents.
Abstract: According to some embodiments, a syringe may include a barrel; a delivery conduit; a plunger seal disposed within the barrel; and a plunger rod assembly affixed to an end of the barrel, the plunger rod assembly including a first plunger rod component comprising a first linear gear, a second plunger rod component disposed at least partially in the barrel and engaged with the plunger seal, wherein the second plunger rod component comprises a second linear gear, a first rotational gear having a plurality of gear teeth for engaging the first linear gear, and a second rotational gear having a second plurality of gear teeth for engaging the second linear gear, wherein the first rotational gear is coupled to the second rotational gear such that translation of the first plunger rod component causes translation of the second plunger rod component.

Abstract: Described is a combination of a prophylactic or therapeutic agent for glaucoma or ocular hypertension, which is useful as a prophylactic or therapeutic agent for glaucoma or ocular hypertension. By combining sepetaprost and a Rho-associated coiled-coil containing protein kinase inhibitor(s), an intraocular pressure lowering action is enhanced as compared with the case where each drug is used alone. As the form of administration, they may be administered concomitantly or may be administered as a combination drug.
