(Nasdaq: VTRS), a global healthcare company, today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has accepted for review the supplemental New Drug Application (sNDA) for MR-141 (phentolamine ophthalmic solution 0.75%) for the treatment of presbyopia. The FDA has assigned a PDUFA goal date of October 17, 2026. Presbyopia is the age-related progressive loss of the ability to focus on close objects that results in blurred near vision and eye strain. The condition affects approximately 90% of adults in the U.S. over the age of 45.

(Nasdaq: LENZ or “LENZ” or the “Company”), today announced the US Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) approved VIZZ (aceclidine ophthalmic solution) 1.44%, the first and only FDA-approved aceclidine-based eye drop for the treatment of presbyopia in adults. Samples are anticipated in the United States as early as October 2025, with commercial product to be broadly available by mid-Q4 2025. Direct-to-eye care professional sales and marketing activities to be initiated immediately.
• In April 2025, Tenpoint Therapeutics, Ltd. (“Tenpoint”), a global, clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing groundbreaking treatments to rejuvenate vision in the aging eye, today announced that the Company has submitted a New Drug Application (NDA) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for BRIMOCHOL™ PF for the treatment of presbyopia, an age-related near-vision loss condition impacting approximately two billion people globally and 128 million people in the United States.
• In November 2024:- Alcon Research- The purpose of this study is to evaluate on-eye clinical performance of the investigational contact lenses following 30 days of wear in the intended population. Participants will be expected to attend 5 office visits for an individual duration of participation of approximately 64 days.
• In October 2024, LENZ Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: LENZ or “LENZ” or the “Company”), a pre-commercial biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of the first and only aceclidine-based eye drop to improve near vision in people with presbyopia, today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has accepted the Company’s New Drug Application (NDA) for LNZ100 for the treatment of presbyopia, a condition impacting an estimated 1.8 billion people globally and 128 million people in the United States. The FDA has assigned a Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) target action date of August 8, 2025 for LNZ100. The FDA noted that it is not planning to hold an advisory committee meeting to discuss this application.
• The leading Presbyopia Companies such as Glaukos Corporation, Orasis Pharmaceuticals, Novartis, Cellix Bio, Visus Therapeutics, AbbVie, Vyluma, Lenz Therapeutics, Ocuphire Pharma, JIXING Pharmaceuticals, Eyenovia, among others.
• Promising Presbyopia Therapies such as LX-OPH-162, Research programme, STN 1013600, GLK-302, Nyxol, VTI-001, LNZ100, MicroLine (Pilocarpine Ophthalmic), CSF-1 (PresbiDrops), Nyxol, VT-101 (Brimochol), AGN-241622, and others.

Presbyopia Emerging Drugs Profile

• LNZ100: Lenz Therapeutics

LNZ100 is a preservative-free, single-use, once-daily eye drop containing aceclidine, a selective muscarinic receptor agonist. It works by constricting the pupil, creating a pinhole effect that improves near vision. Unlike other pupil-constricting agents, aceclidine has a unique mechanism of action that decouples the miotic effect from the stimulation of the ciliary muscle, reducing the risk of myopic shift and accompanying brow ache. This allows LNZ100 to provide a broad patient population with a long-lasting and efficient treatment for presbyopia, a condition characterized by the gradual hardening of the lens and decline in near vision with age. Currently, the drug is in Phase III stage of its clinical trial for the treatment of presbyopia.

• GLK-302: Glaukos Corporation

Glaukos Corporation is developing GLK-302, a sterile ophthalmic topical cream containing the active ingredient pilocarpine, for the treatment of presbyopia. GLK-302 is designed to be applied to the eyelid, allowing the pilocarpine to be delivered through the dermis to the eye. The mechanism of action involves pilocarpine, a muscarinic acetylcholine receptor agonist, which acts on the M3 and M1 receptors in the eye to cause pupillary constriction and increase the depth of focus, thereby improving near visual acuity in presbyopic patients without significantly deteriorating distance vision. Currently, the drug is in Phase II stage of its clinical trial for the treatment of presbyopia.

Presbyopia Treatment Outlook:

The Presbyopia treatment pipeline is gaining momentum due to several key drivers, including the rising global prevalence of age-related vision disorders, increasing awareness and diagnosis rates, and growing demand for non-invasive and convenient treatment options like eye drops and intraocular lenses. Technological advancements in ophthalmology and the emergence of novel pharmacological therapies are further accelerating pipeline activity. Moreover, favorable regulatory support and increased investments in R&D by pharmaceutical companies are fueling innovation in the presbyopia space.

However, barriers persist, such as the high cost of advanced treatments, limited long-term efficacy data for newer therapies, and challenges in patient compliance, especially for drop-based regimens. Additionally, intense competition among emerging therapies and a cautious adoption rate by clinicians may hinder rapid market penetration. Safety concerns and side effects associated with certain investigational drugs also pose significant hurdles in the clinical development process.
