Durysta

The most common side effect involving the eyes reported in patients using DURYSTA™ was eye redness. Other common side effects reported were: feeling like something is in your eye, eye pain, being sensitive to light, a blood spot on the white of your eye, dry eye, eye irritation, increased eye pressure, a loss of cells on the inner layer of the cornea, blurry vision, inflammation of the iris, and headache.

DURYSTA™ is placed directly inside your eye, one time per eye, by your eye doctor.

DURYSTA™ is a drug delivery system for your eye. It is a dissolvable implant, administered one time by your eye doctor. DURYSTA™ should not be given in the same eye more than once. One DURYSTA™ implant lasts for several months.

In 2 clinical studies for DURYSTA™, eye pressure was reduced for 15 weeks.

After DURYSTA™ is administered, there is the potential risk for complications including, but not limited to, the development of side effects (see next question for the most common side effects reported by patients using DURYSTA™).

If your eye becomes red, sensitive to light, painful, or if your vision changes, you should seek immediate care from an ophthalmologist.

It is important to follow your eye doctor's instructions closely. After you receive DURYSTA™, you must be monitored by your eye doctor.
