Ocular long-acting injectables and implants (LAIIs) deliver drug at a controlled release rate over weeks to years. A reduced dose frequency eases the treatment burden on patients, minimizes the potential for treatment-related adverse effects, and improves treatment adherence and persistence. This review provides a comprehensive landscape of ocular LAII drug delivery technologies with clinical precedent, including eight commercial products and 27 clinical programs. Analysis of this landscape, and the specific technologies with the greatest precedent, provides instructive lessons for researchers interested in this space and insights into the direction of the field. Further technological advancement is required to create biodegradable LAIIs with extended release durations and LAIIs that are compatible with a broader array of therapeutic modalities. In the future, ocular LAII innovations can be applied to diseases with limited treatment options, prophylactic treatment at earlier stages of disease, and cost-effective treatment of ocular diseases in global health settings.
