The permeability of the blood-ocular barrier to therapeutic or diagnostic agents in the bloodstream of a host is increased by administering a permeabilizer peptide, preferably bradykinin or a bradykinin analogue, into the bloodstream of a host. The invention provides methods of treatment or diagnosis of ocular diseases by administration of a permeabilizer peptide, such as permeabilizer A-7, in combination with a therapeutic or diagnostic agent. |
