Eye is a very sensitive organ, the dosage forms to be administered are very peculiar. Design of ophthalmic drug delivery systems is a major challenge, as they are to be made to pass various ocular barriers and improve drug bioavailability for a prolong period of time. Conventional delivery systems are employed for administration of drug into the ocular region and find difficult to pass through the barriers of the eye, low bioavailability and potential drug side effects, hence the novel drug delivery systems are developed for effective release of drug and prolong release and more retention time of drug in the ophthalmic region. These novel drug delivery systems offer manifold advantages over conventional systems as they increase the efficiency of drug delivery by improving the release profile and also reduce drug toxicity. Development of novel therapeutic agents continue to provide ocular delivery systems with high therapeutic efficacy. Need to develop ocular drug delivery systems that provide controlled release for the treatment of chronic diseases in order to reduce dosing frequency. The current article gives a quality of information about novel drug delivery system employed in the delivery of drug to optical region.
