Abstract
A computer-implemented method for testing ocular drug delivery is provided. The ocular drug delivery is characterized by a set of delivery parameters comprising at least one of drug type, drug concentration, drug amount, injection position, penetration depth. The method comprises: providing a model for the human eye, wherein the model comprises: a geometry equation defining a three-dimensional generalized limacon for the geometry of the vitreous body, geometry equations describing all components of the eye; and a set of equations defining a drug convection in the vitreous body; setting a target drug state in the vitreous body; using the model to perform at least one simulation of the ocular drug delivery with a given set of values for the set of delivery parameters, wherein the at least one simulation provides a simulated drug state in the vitreous body; comparing the target drug state and the simulated drug state.
