Abstract: The present invention provides an improvement in the strength of the scleral by collagen fiber crosslinking via crosslinking treatment of the sclera at the equatorial region of the eye and/or at the posterior pole such as the fundus of the eye. Also provided is the prevention and/or treatment of eye disease by the same. Provided are a photosensitizer used in a crosslinking treatment for the sclera at the equatorial region of the eye and/or at the posterior pole of the eye; a kit containing the same; and a method for emitting light for the crosslinking treatment.

Abstract: To prove an optical probe that can illuminate an entire desired region at one time, even in a narrow space. An optical probe including: a linear light guide to guide light from a light source device; a planar emitter to be connected to a tip portion of the linear light guide, to emit the light; a reflective surface provided in a part of the planar emitter, to reflect the light having entered the planar emitter; and an emitting surface provided so as to face the reflective surface, to allow the light reflected by the reflective surface to be emitted from a region of the reflective surface.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an ophthalmic depot preparation comprising benzyl benzoate and/or benzyl alcohol and polyethylene glycol and/or dimethylsulfoxide, wherein the volume ratio of benzyl benzoate and/or benzyl alcohol to polyethylene glycol and/or dimethylsulfoxide in the ophthalmic depot preparation is 75:25 to 25:75, and the total amount of benzyl benzoate and/or benzyl alcohol and polyethylene glycol and/or dimethylsulfoxide contained is 50% (w/w) or more.

Abstract: Pharmaceutical compositions comprising an active pharmaceutical ingredient, a high viscosity liquid carrier material, a hydrophobic solvent, and a hydrophilic solvent are disclosed. Also disclosed are methods of manufacturing and using the compositions. The compositions are suitable for use, e.g., as depot formulations.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a prophylactic or therapeutic agent for a posterior ocular disease containing the compound represented by a formula (1), its enantiomer or diastereomer, or their pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as an active ingredient.

Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to provide a novel injectable agent having an excellent medicinal agent sustained release property. The injectable agent according to the present invention comprises a medicinal agent, trehalose and gellan gum. It is preferred that the contents of the medicinal agent, trehalose and gellan gum are 0.0001 to 50.00% (w/v), 0.1 to 50.0% (w/v) and 0.01 to 3.00% (w/v), respectively, relative to the total volume of the injectable agent. It is also preferred that the injectable agent can form a depot upon exposure to a phosphate buffer solution or a body fluid (tear fluid, vitreous fluid, etc.).
