Abstract: Disclosed herein are therapeutic regimens for improving visual function in Retinitis Pigmentosa and other visual disorders associated with an endogenous retinoid deficiency in a subject by administering a therapeutically effective amount of a synthetic retinal derivative, for example a 9- or 11-cis retinyl ester, according to the therapeutic regimen which leads to local recovery of visual functions such as visual fields, visual acuity and retinal sensitivity, among others.

Abstract: A method of decreasing intraocular pressure (IOP) in an eye of a patient in need thereof includes implanting a first lacrimal implant through a firsts punctum and into a first lacrimal canaliculus of the eye of the patient. The method may further comprise implanting a second lacrimal implant through a second punctum and into a second lacrimal canaliculus of the eye of the patient, and releasing, on a sustained basis a therapeutically effective amount of an intraocular pressure-reducing therapeutic agent.

Abstract: A method of decreasing intraocular pressure (IOP) in an eye of a patient in need thereof includes implanting a first lacrimal implant through an upper punctum and into an upper lacrimal canaliculus of the eye of the patient. The method may further comprise implanting a second lacrimal implant through a lower punctum and into a lower lacrimal canaliculus of the eye of the patient, and releasing, on a sustained basis a therapeutically effective amount of an intraocular pressure-reducing therapeutic agent.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are therapeutic regimens for treating or ameliorating a visual disorder associate with an endogenous retinoid deficiency in a subject by administering a therapeutically effective amount of a synthetic retinal derivative or a pharmaceutically acceptable composition comprising a synthetic retinal derivative according to the therapeutic regimen which leads to local recovery of visual functions such as visual fields, visual acuity and retinal sensitivity, among others.

Abstract: Therapeutic regimes for improving visual function in a subject having a deficiency in endogenously produced 11-cis retinal comprising administering the synthetic retinal derivative as a divided dose over 2-7 days then providing a resting period of 7-28 days after which the second dose of the synthetic retinal derivative is administered. Preferred synthetic retinal derivatives are 9-or 11-cis-retinyl esters.
