Ophthalmic solutionsAdvantages: Ingredients are completely dissolved, inexpensive manufacturing, accepted standard of care.
Disadvantages: Messy, compliance issues, short residence time, dilution and washout, require high drug concentration, systemic side-effects
*A thickening agent may be used toincrease the viscosity but there is a chance to develop residue in the eyelashes.

Ophthalmic Gel-forming solutionsThese are aqueous solutions of polymer having
low viscosity that forms a gel in contact with the
tear protein, pH change, temperature change.
Advantages: Ingredients are completely dissolved.Adequate contact time of medicament with the eye
Disadvantages:
It may develop residue in the eyelashes.

Powders for solutionsDue to least instability of the drug in an
aqueous solvent some ophthalmic products
are available in dry powder form that
requires reconstitution by the pharmacist
prior administration.
Instruction: Aseptic environment is required
for reconstitution to maintain efficacy of the
product.

Ophthalmic SuspensionsThese are aqueous suspensions of one or
more
medicament.
Advantages: Adequate contact time of
medicament.
Increased duration of action.
Disadvantages:
It may develop residue in the eyelashes.

Ophthalmic OintmentThese are anhydrous, containing Liquid
paraffin, Wool fat and Yellow soft paraffin in the proportions 1:1:8.
They are used for therapeutic and diagnostic purposes and contain drug such as Antimicrobial, Corticosteroid & NSAIDs, Advantages: Having increase contact time
Good bioavailability Disadvantage: Interfere with vision (they are
mostly used at bed time i.e. HS)

Ophthalmic EmulsionIt mostly comprised of water & castor oil (as oily
phase)Advantages: Possesses the ability to deliver the poor water soluble drug in solublized form as eye
drops.O/W emulsion is less irritant to the eye. Increase contact timeGood bioavailabilityDisadvantage: W/O emulsion may interfere with
vision

Ophthalmic GelIn the making of ophthalmic gels, Carbomer
(polymer) is used in aqueous medium. Advantages:
Significantly increased contact timeIncreased drug bioavailabilityDecreased dosage frequency
Disadvantages: Blurred vision due to increased
water content

Ocular InsertOcuserts are the new drug delivery systems
which are designed in such a way that they release the drug at predetermined and predictable rates thus eliminating the frequent administration of the drug.
A drug-dispensing ocular insert containing a drug and suited for application to the eyeball, stay over a prolonged period of time, but the inserts must then be removed when they are no longer needed.

Contd.The systems generally include controlled,
delayed and or sustained release.
e.g. The Pilocarpine inserts used in glaucoma therapy PILOCAR-20, PILOCAR-40.
