Reverse micelle system bearing insulin was developed for controlled and prolonged release of drug through ocular route. The system was prepared by using cetyl tri-ammonium bromide and span-60 separately with organic solvent isopropyl myristate. The effect of temperature and polarity on the system was studied by measuring the drug content. In-vitro drug release study was carried out by using a Frang diffusion cell and artificial tear solution as diffusion medium. It was observed that the micellar systems exhibited prolonged and controlled release of insulin.
