摘要：
Disclosed are lacrimal inserts and their method of use for delivery of of medication to the eye. The plug includes a body portion sized to pass through a lacrimal punctum and be positioned within a lacrimal canaliculus of the eyelid. The plug may contain a core, or reservoir, at least partially within the body portion comprising a therapeutic agent that is configured to controlled release into the eye and is configured to release medication via a designated port, valve, or orifice in the insert housing and inhibits diffusion of medication via the housing itself The core may include retention features to ensure that it remains securely located within the lacrimal insert over its usable life.
