RVL Pharmaceuticals plc focuses on developing innovative therapeutics for ocular conditions, notably its flagship product, Upneeq, which treats acquired blepharoptosis. The company operates primarily in the United States, leveraging a unique formulation that allows for once-daily administration, setting it apart from competitors in the ophthalmic space.

RVL Pharmaceuticals generates revenue primarily through the sales of Upneeq, which has a unique mechanism of action that stimulates the Müller muscle to elevate the upper eyelid.
