SAN DIEGO, April 22, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Imprimis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: IMMY), a vertically-integrated specialty pharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of proprietary sterile and topical compounded drug formulations, announced today its attendance and physicians' presentations at the upcoming American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery (ASCRS) Annual Symposium & Congress in Boston from April 25-29, 2014.

The American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery is an international educational society with more than 9,000 members. Its mission is to advance the art and science of ophthalmic surgery and the knowledge and skills of ophthalmic surgeons by providing clinical and practice management education and by working with patients, government, and the medical community to promote the delivery and advancement of high-quality eye care.

Details of the presentations of physician and patient experience with Imprimis' patent-pending compounded formulations at ASCRS include:

• Sunday, April 27, 2014, 1:00-2:30 p.m. EDT, "IVTA & Antibiotics," Jeffrey T. Liegner, Course 27-303: Better Surgery Through Chemicals: Topical and Intracameral Agents for the Anterior Segment Surgeon, Room 253B.
• Sunday, April 27, 2014, 3:33 p.m. EDT, "Intravitreal Placement of Antibiotic/Steroid as Substitute for Postoperative Drops After Cataract Surgery," M. Stewart Galloway, MD, Session: Intraocular Surgery - Medications, Room 152.

Additional information about Imprimis and the presentations will be available to conference attendees who visit the Imprimis booth (#1481).

Imprimis' proprietary patent-pending ophthalmic compounded formulations are now available with a physician's prescription in many states while the Company continues its Go Dropless campaign (http://GoDropless.com/). The campaign was created to inform ophthalmologists about dropless ophthalmic surgery opportunities and the unique injectable compounded drug formulations Imprimis has developed in conjunction with physicians and pharmacists.

ABOUT DROPLESS OPHTHALMIC SURGERY FORMULATIONS
Imprimis acquired the intellectual property for these patent-pending formulations in August of 2013. As the Company stated at that time, the current treatment regimen for the prevention of post-cataract surgery complications is a costly pre-operative and post-operative patient-administered eye drop regimen, which requires strict patient compliance and careful adherence to a prescribed dosing schedule. Individuals with physical limitations, impaired manual dexterity, or those who lack a supportive caregiver, are particularly vulnerable to non-compliance and the subsequent complications of untreated post-surgical issues. Imprimis' unique drug formulations utilize a fourth generation quinolone therapy combined with anti-inflammatory agent, providing new choices for physicians to address the primary ocular complications of ophthalmic surgery - risk of infection and post-operative inflammation.
