Iontophoresis, a minimally-invasive methodology that uses a weak electric current to enhance penetration of ionized molecules into tissues, was found to be an effective technique for the intraocular delivery of large bioactive molecules, specifically lutein.

The present invention relates to a method for topical administration of ophthalmic compositions in a dropwise manner, preferably for topical administration of ophthalmic compositions comprising semifluorinated alkanes (SFAs). Further, the present invention relates to the use of said methods in the prevention or treatment of ocular diseases or disorders or any symptoms or conditions associated therewith. In a further aspect, the present invention relates to a kit comprising a drop dispenser at least partially filled with a liquid composition for the use in such a method and directions for use of said drop dispenser.

Configurations are disclosed for a health system to be used in various healthcare applications, e.g., for patient diagnostics, monitoring, and/or therapy. The health system may comprise a light generation module to transmit light or an image to a user, one or more sensors to detect a physiological parameter of the user's body, including their eyes, and processing circuitry to analyze an input received in response to the presented images to determine one or more health conditions or defects.

Methods of administering a liquid formulation of an ophthalmic agent to a topical ocular location of an eye are provided. Aspects of the methods include delivering to the topical ocular location a dose of the liquid formulation that can be wholly accommodated by the tear film of the eye. Devices and kits for practicing the methods are also provided. The methods, compositions and kits find use in a variety of applications, including therapeutic, diagnostic and cosmetic applications.
