NEW YORK, Oct. 30, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Eyenovia, Inc. (NASDAQ: EYEN), an ophthalmic technology company commercializing Mydcombi™ for mydriasis, preparing for regulatory approval of APP130007 for relief of pain and inflammation post ocular surgery, and incorporating its advanced Optejet® device for use both in connection with its own drug-device therapeutic product candidates for presbyopia and pediatric progressive myopia as well as out-licensing for additional indications, today announced that it is sponsoring a course during the International Joint Commission on Allied Health Personnel in Ophthalmology (IJCAHPO) 51st Annual Continuing Education (ACE) program, which is being held November 3-5 in San Francisco.
