EyePoint Pharmaceuticals has made significant strides in the field of retinal disease treatments. Its lead product candidate, DURAVYU™ (previously known as EYP-1901), is an investigational treatment for VEGF-mediated retinal diseases.

The company has secured exclusive licenses for vorolanib from Equinox Sciences for all ophthalmic uses outside of China, Macao, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. Additionally, EyePoint has FDA-approved products such as RETISERT® and YUTIQ® that are based on its proprietary drug delivery technology.
