Abstract

Most of the ophthalmic drug delivery methods for treating ocular diseases are eye drops. However, topical eye drop instillation has limitations in that the bioavailability is low, side effects may occur due to systemic absorption, and patient compliance is low. Various delivery methods have been attempted to effectively deliver ophthalmic drugs, and among them, a drug delivery system using a contact lens will be reviewed.
