Glaukos (NYSE:GKOS) announced today that it submitted a New Drug Application (NDA) to the FDA for its iDose TR implant.

Aliso Viejo, California-based Glaukos designed iDose TR as a micro-invasive intraocular implant.

Once all travoprost is released, iDose TR is removed and replaced with an implant. This potentially offers an alternative to daily eye drop treatment.
