Business summary
Alimera Sciences, Inc. is a global pharmaceutical company that specializes in the commercialization and development of prescription ophthalmic retinal pharmaceuticals. It is engaged in developing and commercializing ILUVIEN for the treatment of diabetic macular edema (DME), a cause of blindness, and outside the United States for non-infectious uveitis affecting the posterior segment of the eye (NIU-PS). ILUVIEN is a sustained-release intravitreal implant that enables patients to maintain vision longer, and importantly, with fewer injections. ILUVIEN is an intravitreal implant that treats patients by delivering a continuous micro dose of the corticosteroid fluocinolone acetonide (FAc) in the eye, for up to 36 months. ILUVIEN is inserted into the back of the patient's eye in a non-surgical procedure employing a device with a 25-gauge needle, which allows for a self-sealing wound. DME is also treated by laser photocoagulation, a retinal procedure in which a laser is used to apply a burn.

Key personnel
The London Stock Exchange does not disclose whether a trade is a buy or a sell so this data is estimated based on the trade price received and the LSE-quoted mid-price at the point the trade is placed. It should only be considered an indication and not a recommendation.
Trades priced above the mid-price at the time the trade is placed are labelled as a buy; those priced below the mid-price are sells; and those priced close to the mid-price or declared late are labelled 'N/A'.
