Abstract

A scleral buckle device and components thereof that facilitate quick and efficient implantation into the ocular environment. One or more components of the scleral buckle device can be realized from polymeric material(s), preferably SIBS material, that is loaded with one or more therapeutic agents for time-released delivery therefrom into the ocular environment. The therapeutic agents can be selected as desired to treat a variety of eye diseases such as age-related macular degeneration.
