With these positive results in-hand, supported by our strong balance sheet, we are well-positioned to advance EYP-1901 through these important Phase 2 trials.” Ms. Lurker continued, “On the commercial front, we had our strongest quarter to-date with $11.3 million in net product revenue, an increase of 30% from the first quarter of this year along with continued strong customer demand for both YUTIQ® and DEXYCU®.” R&D Highlights and Updates
