COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR THE TREATMENT OF PRESBYOPIA
The invention provides compositions and methods for the treatment of presbyopia. The compositions comprise aceclidine hydrochloride, polysorbate 80, mannitol, anhydrous hypromellose, disodium edetate dihydrate and anhydrous sodium citrate and optionally brimonidine, benzalkonium chloride and/or sorbic acid.
1 . A composition for the treatment of presbyopia comprising about 1.75% w/w aceclidine hydrochloride, about 4.0% w/w polysorbate 80, about 2.5% w/w mannitol, about 1.25% w/w anhydrous hypromellose, about 0.1% w/w disodium edetate dihydrate and from about 0.06% to about 0.1% w/w anhydrous sodium citrate, wherein w/w denotes weight by total volume of the composition and wherein the composition has a pH from about 5.0 to about 6.5.
2 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein anhydrous sodium citrate is at a concentration of about 0.06% w/w.
3 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein anhydrous sodium citrate is at a concentration of about 0.08% w/w.
4 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein anhydrous sodium citrate is at a concentration of about 0.1% w/w.
5 . A method of treating low regular astigmatism, low or high irregular astigmatism, keratoconic ectasia, night vision halos/starbursts, night vision reduced contrast, and low myopia, or hyperopia, with or without astigmatism, comprising administering to a subject in need thereof the ophthalmological composition of claim 1 .
6 . A method of treating presbyopia comprising administering to a subject in need thereof the ophthalmological composition of claim 1 .
7 . A composition for the treatment of presbyopia comprising about 1.75% w/w aceclidine hydrochloride, about 0.08% w/w brimonidine, about 4.0% w/w polysorbate 80, about 2.5% w/w mannitol, about 1.25% w/w anhydrous hypromellose, about 0.1% w/w disodium edetate dihydrate and from about 0.06% to about 0.1% w/w anhydrous sodium citrate, wherein w/w denotes weight by total volume of the composition and wherein the composition has a pH from about 5.0 to about 6.5.
8 . The composition of claim 7 , wherein anhydrous sodium citrate is at a concentration of about 0.06% w/w.
9 . The composition of claim 7 , wherein anhydrous sodium citrate is at a concentration of about 0.08% w/w.
10 . The composition of claim 7 , wherein anhydrous sodium citrate is at a concentration of about 0.1% w/w.
11 . A method of treating low regular astigmatism, low or high irregular astigmatism, keratoconic ectasia, night vision halos/starbursts, night vision reduced contrast, and low myopia, or hyperopia, with or without astigmatism, comprising administering to a subject in need thereof the ophthalmological composition of claim 7 .
12 . A method of treating presbyopia comprising administering to a subject in need thereof the ophthalmological composition of claim 7 .
13 . A composition for the treatment of presbyopia comprising about 1.75% w/w aceclidine hydrochloride, about 0.08% w/w brimonidine, about 4.0% w/w polysorbate 80, about 2.5% w/w mannitol, about 1.25% w/w anhydrous hypromellose, about 0.1% w/w disodium edetate dihydrate, about 0.02% w/w benzalkonium chloride, about 0.12% w/w sorbic acid and from about 0.06% to about 0.1% w/w anhydrous sodium citrate, wherein w/w denotes weight by total volume of the composition and wherein the composition has a pH from about 5.0 to about 6.5.
14 . A method of treating low regular astigmatism, low or high irregular astigmatism, keratoconic ectasia, night vision halos/starbursts, night vision reduced contrast, and low myopia, or hyperopia, with or without astigmatism, comprising administering to a subject in need thereof the ophthalmological composition of claim 13 .
15 . A method of treating presbyopia comprising administering to a subject in need thereof the ophthalmological composition of claim 13 .
