  • Patent number: 9155719
    Abstract: The invention relates to a medicament, the active principle of which is a leucine and, for example, a N-ACETYL-DL-LEUCINE. It can be applied to the prevention and/or treatment of eye diseases or disorders and especially of hereditary dystrophies of the retina, glaucomatous neuropathy, glaucoma, macular degeneration, myopia, presbyopia, hypermetropia, astigmatism, all the ophtalmologic diseases or disorders inducing a decrease of visual function and/or age-related physiological vision decline.

  • Publication number: 20150133455
    Abstract: The invention relates to a cellprotective, neuroprotective and retinoprotective composition. In an embodiment of the invention, said composition comprises (i) Ramipril or Ramiprilate and (ii) folic acid. The composition of the invention can be used, in particular, for the prevention of loss of vision, or even for improving visual acuity and visual field in normal subjects, as well as for treating ophthalmologic pathologies, in particular: glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, age related macular degeneration, hereditary dystrophy of the retina, uveitis, ammetropia (myopia, presbyopia). This combination of active principles could also be used in general conditions for treating general pathologies (cancer . . . ).

  • Publication number: 20140011809
    Abstract: A method and means for delivery of drugs to the chorio-retina and the optic nerve head which comprises contacting the surface of the eye with an effective amount of drug for treatment of chorio-retina and optic nerve head and a physiologically acceptable adrenergic agent for enhancing delivery of the drug to these tissues in an ophtalmologically acceptable carrier, said adrenergic agent being selected from the group consisting of alpha adrenergic agonist agents, derivatives of the alpha adrenergic agonist agents, beta-blocking agents, derivatives of the beta-blocking agents and mixtures thereof.

  • Patent number: 7049340
    Abstract: The invention concerns a neuroprotective and retinoprotective medicine, whereof the active principle is selected among a group of compounds consisting of ramipril, ramiprilat or any other ramiprilat derivative capable of releasing it in the organism whereto it is administered. Said medicine is used for prevention, or even for improving visual acuity and visual field in normal subjects, as well as for treating ophthalmologic pathologies involving a vascular factor, in particular glaucomatous neuropathy, degenerative choriopathy of strong myopia, age-related maculopathy, serous central chorioretinopathy, hereditary dystrophy of the retina and retinal venous occlusions. It almost invariably improves the visual function (acuity and visual field).
