Abstract

A bioadhesive ophthalmic insert is described which is intended more particularly for the prolonged and controlled release of a medicinal substance. The insert comprises a composite polymeric material matrix in which the medicinal substance is incorporated.
The composite polymeric material matrix comprises a water-soluble biocompatible polymer and a bioadhesive biocompatible polymer and, where applicable, a water-insoluble biocompatible polymer.
