Due to inadequate quantity of drugs being delivered to the diseased site, the chronic eye disease management becomes a challenge and is a reason for vision impairment in a lot of patients worldwide. In current practice, the treatment is usually done by the conventional forms of treatment e.g., topical formulations which have a low bioavailability, permeation, diffusion rate and causes irritation, inflammation, toxicity etc. The chronic eye conditions such as macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, retinal vein occlusion needs a consistent form of treatment which is effective and have a high patient compliance.
