摘要： The present invention provides implantable ocular drug delivery devices. Generally, the devices have a distal portion with a coil shaped body member and a proximal portion which contacts the sclera. In one aspect, the coil-shaped body member includes a unique configuration including two coiled portions with different pitches, which improves insertion of the device into the eye. In another aspect, the device has a proximal portion that includes a unique cap configuration having a concave distal face that improves stabilization of the device in the eye. In another aspect, the device includes a transitional portion between the cap and the coil-shaped body member that also improves stabilization of the device in the eye. The invention also provides methods for inserting the medical device into the eye, and methods for the treatment of an ocular condition.
