Eyepoint Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of therapies for the treatment of ocular diseases. The company’s proprietary platform centers on sustained-release formulations designed to improve drug delivery to the posterior segment of the eye, addressing conditions that often require repeated intravitreal injections or intensive topical regimens. Eyepoint’s commercial strategy combines in-house sales and marketing capabilities with targeted partnerships to bring its therapies to ophthalmologists and retina specialists across the United States.
Eyepoint’s lead products include YUTIQ, a fluocinolone acetonide intravitreal implant indicated for the prevention of relapse in non-infectious uveitis affecting the posterior segment of the eye, and DEXYCU, a dexamethasone intraocular suspension approved for postoperative inflammation following ocular surgery. Both products leverage sustained-release technology to deliver corticosteroids directly to ocular tissues, aiming to reduce treatment frequency and improve patient compliance compared with traditional eye drop approaches.
The company secured FDA approvals for both YUTIQ and DEXYCU in late 2018 and commenced U.S. commercial launches in 2019. Eyepoint is headquartered in New York, with additional facilities supporting manufacturing and clinical development efforts. Since its inception, the company has entered into multiple licensing agreements to expand its product portfolio and explore new ophthalmic indications, while also advancing preclinical programs investigating sustained-release therapies for other retinal and anterior segment disorders.
Eyepoint is led by James A. Mazzo, who serves as Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer. Under his leadership, the company has built a specialized commercial organization and forged strategic collaborations to broaden its market reach. Eyepoint continues to invest in research and development to enhance its sustained-release platform and pursue additional regulatory milestones that may address unmet needs in ophthalmology.
