LONDON, May 28, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- In the historic period, the dry eye medications market witnessed a rise in the number of research collaborations as well as research funding approvals. Companies in the market are expected to increase their research and development (R&D) expenditure to develop innovative and novel therapies to treat dry eye disorders. For instance, in November 2017, an Israeli-Australian company, Azura Ophthalmics, raised $16 million for the research and development of its new treatment of meibomian gland dysfunction, a common eye condition caused due to the lack of secretion of oil by the meibomian glands. It is a leading cause of dry eye syndrome. The funding came from Brandon Capital, TPG Biotech, OrbiMed, and Ganot Capital. In September 2017, HanAll Biopharma Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of South Korea-based Daewoong Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., announced its collaboration with China's Harbour BioMed to research and develop HanAll's two novel biologics in Greater China. One of the biologics is the HL036, an anti-TNF ophthalmic solution devised for the treatment of dry eyes and other inflammatory diseases.
