Eyenovia Announces Progress on Next-Generation User-Filled Optejet Dispensing Device

NEW YORK, Feb. 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Eyenovia, Inc. (NASDAQ: EYEN) (“Eyenovia” or the “Company”), an ophthalmic technology company focused on completing development of its proprietary Optejet® device, today announces recent progress on the development of its user-filled spray dispenser. “Millions of consumers have difficulty with traditional eye drops, including difficulty with inaccurate administration, discomfort from head tilting, messing up make-up and waste and potential side effects associated with excess drops, all of which could be addressed with the Optejet,” stated Michael Rowe, Chief Executive Officer of Eyenovia. “To that end, we continue to advance development of our novel, user-filled Optejet dispenser and look forward to filing for U.S. regulatory approval for this device in the fourth quarter of this year. We believe the user-filled Optejet can address multi-billion-dollar ophthalmic markets while offering an enhanced user experience.” Some of the features incorporated into the user-filled Optejet include: User-Filled Cartridge The new design includes a sterile disposable cartridge that users can fill using their own, fresh eyedropper bottle. The cartridge is then attached to the reusable base unit and would be capable of dispensing up to 180 metered sprays. Once empty, the cartridge is simply replaced with a new user-filled cartridge. Reliable and Precise Spray Rigorous testing has resulted in observations of the Optejet’s durable base unit performing over 30,000 sprays, and 98% of the Optejet sprays were between 8-9 microliters (approximately equal to the amount of liquid the eye can hold) over 180 doses, meeting exacting specifications. Versatile Applications The user-filled Optejet is designed to work with a variety of topical ophthalmic liquids, such as artificial tears and lens rewetting products, which are expected to generate sales of four billion dollars in the U.S. this year alone. About Eyenovia, Inc. Eyenovia, Inc. is an ophthalmic technology company developing its proprietary Optejet topical ophthalmic medication dispensing platform. The Optejet may be especially useful in treatment of chronic front-of-the-eye diseases due to its ease of use, enhanced safety and tolerability, and potential for superior compliance versus standard eye drops. Together, these benefits may combine to produce better treatment options and outcomes for patients and providers. For more information, please visit Eyenovia.com.
