Abstract

Eye diseases such as glaucoma can be treated using a composition containing cross-linked hyaluronic acid or a cross-linked salt of hyaluronic acid such as sodium hyalurate. The composition can be a monophasic gel. The composition can include a cross-linking agent such as 1,4-butanediol diglycidylether. The composition can contains about 2.25% (w/w) of the salt of hyaluronic acid. The composition can have a cross-linking rate of about 0.5 to 50%.
