Sterile Ophthalmic Compounding for Ophthalmology Practices & Surgery Centers
Massey Drugs compounds custom sterile ophthalmic eye drops and compounded sterile ophthalmology medications for surgery centers and ophthalmology practices managing inflammatory, infectious, post-operative, and complex ocular conditions. Compounded ophthalmic therapies are frequently prescribed when commercially available products do not meet clinical needs due to concentration limitations, excipient sensitivity, availability issues, or the need for noncommercial formulations.
All ophthalmic eye drops are prepared as sterile formulations under controlled conditions and compounded to support both clinic-based and surgical workflows.
Sterile Ophthalmic Compounding Capabilities
Massey Drugs is an NABP Accredited Compounding Pharmacy and provides sterile ophthalmic compounding for medications that must be prepared in a controlled, contaminant-free environment.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I access pricing for compounded ophthalmic eye drops?
Pricing for compounded ophthalmic eye drops is available through the Practitioner Portal. Licensed prescribers and clinics may register to view current pricing, available formulations, and ordering information.
How are sterile ophthalmic eye drops packaged and shipped?
Sterile ophthalmic eye drops are packaged to maintain product integrity during transit. Temperature-controlled packaging is used when required, and handling, medication use and storage instructions are provided with each shipment.
What is the typical turnaround and shipping time for compounded ophthalmic eye drops?
Most compounded ophthalmic eye drops are prepared and shipped via UPS Ground within 24–48 hours once the prescription is received. Emergency and infection-related ophthalmic eye drops are shipped via Next Day Air. Urgent or clinic-use needs should be noted at the time of ordering.
What is a Beyond-use Date (BUD)?
A BUD is the maximum time a compounded sterile preparation (CSP) can be stored before it must be discarded. This date is based on when the medication is compounded — not when it is dispensed — and ensures the product remains sterile, stable, and safe for use. According to USP, “BUDs are intended to minimize the risk of microbial growth in the event of inadvertent contamination, and to allow for patient access to critical therapies.”
