Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying interim unaudited condensed financial statements and related disclosures are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and related footnotes for the year ended December 31, 2014 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 23, 2015. The financial information as of September 30, 2015, the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 is unaudited, but in the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows at the dates and for the periods presented of the results of these interim periods have been included. The balance sheet data as of December 31, 2014 was derived from audited financial statements. The results of the Company’s operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for a full fiscal year. On January 14, 2015, the Company sold, in a private placement, an aggregate of approximately 1.1 million shares of common stock at a price of $7.00 per share. Investors received warrants to purchase up to approximately 1.1 million shares of common stock at an exercise price of $9.50. The Company raised approximately $7.1 million in net proceeds in the private placement of common stock and warrants. Additionally, on January 21, 2015, in a subsequent private placement, the Company sold an aggregate of 211,528 shares of common stock at a price of $9.33 per share and a warrant to purchase up to 211,528 shares of common stock at a price of $0.125 per share subject to the warrant. The Company raised approximately $1.9 million in net proceeds in the private placement of common stock and a warrant to purchase common stock. In both transactions, the exercise price of the warrants is $9.50 per share. The warrants will expire 3 years from their respective date of issuance. The warrants do not include a net-exercise feature. The warrants may be redeemed by the Company at a price of $0.001 per share upon notice to the holders thereof in the event that the closing bid for Aldeyra’s common stock for each of the fifteen consecutive trading days prior to such redemption is at least $20.00 per share and the average trading volume of Aldeyra’s common stock during such period is at least 50,000 shares per day. Following Aldeyra’s notification to the warrant holders of its exercise of the redemption right under the warrants, the warrant holders will have the option to exercise the warrants prior to the redemption date rather than having them redeemed. In addition, the Company raised approximately $19.6 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses, which closed on May 22, 2015, through the issuance and sale of 2,822,500 shares of common stock in a follow-on public offering, including shares sold pursuant to the underwriters exercise of their option to purchase additional shares of common stock. The Company’s management believes that its currently available resources, including amounts potentially available under its credit facility (Note 5), will provide sufficient funds to enable the Company to meet its expected obligations into approximately 2017 based on the Company’s current business plan. However, these amounts will not be sufficient for the Company to commercialize its product candidates or conduct any substantial, additional development requirements requested by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Additional funding may not be available to the Company on acceptable terms, or at all. If the Company is unable to secure additional capital, or meet financial covenants that could be implemented under the Company’s term loans in certain circumstances, it will be required to significantly decrease the amount of planned expenditures, and may be required to cease operations. Curtailment of operations would cause significant delays in the Company’s efforts to introduce its products to market, which is critical to the realization of its business plan and the future operations of the Company. Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Recently issued accounting standards In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2015-03, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs” (“ASU 2015-03”). The amendments in ASU 2015-03 require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. ASU 2015-03 is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017, with early adoption permitted. ASU 2015-03 should be applied on a retrospective basis to each individual period presented. Upon implementation, the change in reporting debt issuance costs will require the Company to reclassify any deferred financing costs from an asset to a reduction of the reported debt balance. The application of ASU 2015-03 is expected to reduce the Company’s total assets and liabilities but is not expected to have an impact on stockholders’ equity, results of operations or cash flows. |

Fair Value Measurements | 4. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, prepaid expenses and other current assets, and accounts payable approximated their estimated fair values because of the short term nature of these financial instruments. The carrying value of the Company’s credit facility in current and long-term liabilities approximates fair value because the Company’s interest rate yield is near current market rates available to the Company. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value are performed in a manner to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 There were no assets or liabilities measured at fair value at September 30, 2015 or December 31, 2014. |

Credit Facility | 6. CREDIT FACILITY In April 2012, the Company entered into a loan and security agreement (the Credit Facility) with Pacific Western Bank, as successor in interest to Square 1 Bank (Pacific Western) which was amended in November 2013, November 2014 and March 2015. Pursuant to the amended Credit Facility, Pacific Western agreed to make term loans in a principal amount of up to $5,000,000 available to the Company with proceeds to be used to refinance outstanding loans from Pacific Western, and to fund expenses related to the Company’s clinical trials, and the remainder for general working capital purposes. Under the terms of the amended Credit Facility, (i) $2,000,000 was made available in November 2014; and (ii) $3,000,000 (the Tranche B Loan) is to be made available to the Company following the satisfaction of certain conditions, including receipt of positive Phase 2 data (as determined by the Aldeyra Board of Directors) in either Sjögren-Larsson Syndrome or noninfectious anterior uveitis. As of September 30, 2015, $1,395,833 was outstanding under the Credit Facility. The term loan accrues interest from its date of issue at a variable annual interest rate equal to the greater of 2.0% plus prime or 5.25% per annum. The effective interest rate through September 30, 2015 was 6.04%. Subsequent to September 30, 2015, the Company amended the Credit Facility, extending the interest only period and the period to satisfy the conditions for Tranche B Loan. The term loan made is payable as interest-only prior to November 2016 and thereafter is payable in monthly installments of principal plus accrued interest over 36 months. The Credit Facility is collateralized by the Company’s assets, including its intellectual property. At September 30, 2015, the Credit Facility is shown net of a remaining debt discount of $114,745 which is being amortized using the effective interest method through the current maturity date of the Credit Facility, November 2019. |

Income Taxes | 7. INCOME TAXES No provision for federal taxes has been recorded as the Company has incurred losses since inception for tax purposes. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. In assessing the realizability of net deferred taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes Under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, certain substantial changes in the Company’s ownership may result in a limitation on the amount of net operating loss carryforwards which can be used in future years. All tax years are open for examination by the taxing authorities for both federal and state purposes. The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions pursuant to ASC 740 which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. If the tax position meets this threshold, the benefit to be recognized is measured as the tax benefit having the highest likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the taxing authority. The Company recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits and penalties in the provision for income taxes. Management is not aware of any uncertain tax positions. |

Stock Incentive Plan | 8. STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN The Company has three incentive plans. One was adopted in 2004 (2004 Plan) and provided for the granting of stock options and restricted stock awards and generally prescribed a contractual term of seven years. The 2004 Plan terminated in August 2010. However, grants made under the 2004 Plan are still governed by that plan. As of September 30, 2015, options to purchase 23,954 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.24 per share remained outstanding under the 2004 Plan. The Company approved the 2010 Employee, Director and Consultant Equity Incentive Plan (2010 Plan) in September 2010 to replace the 2004 Plan. The 2010 Plan provided for the granting of stock options and restricted stock awards. The 2010 Plan terminated upon the Initial Public Offering. However, grants made under the 2010 Plan are still governed by that plan. As of September 30, 2015, options to purchase 585,888 shares of common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $1.41 per share remained outstanding under the 2010 Plan. The Company approved the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (2013 Plan) in October 2013. The 2013 Plan became effective immediately on adoption although no awards were to be made under it until the effective date of the Registration Statement for the Initial Public Offering. The 2013 Plan provides for the granting of stock options, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights, stock units, and performance cash awards to certain employees, members of the board of directors and consultants of the Company. As of December 31, 2014, the number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance in connection with the 2013 Plan was 625,000. On January 1 of each year the aggregate number of common shares that may be issued under the Plan shall automatically increase by a number equal to the least of (a) 4% of the total number of common shares outstanding on the last calendar day of the prior fiscal year, (b) subject to adjustment for certain corporate transactions, 333,333 common shares, or (c) a number of common shares determined by the Company’s board of directors. As of January 1, 2015, the number of shares of common stock that may be issued under the 2013 Plan was automatically increased by 222,617 shares, increasing the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2013 Plan to 847,617 shares. As of September 30, 2015, options to purchase 467,488 shares of common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $7.25 per share remained outstanding under the 2013 Plan. Terms of stock award agreements, including vesting requirements, are determined by the Company’s board of directors or its compensation committee, subject to the provisions of the respective plan they were granted. Options granted by the Company typically vest over a four year period. Certain of the options are subject to acceleration of vesting in the event of certain change of control transactions. The options may be granted for a term of up to ten years from the date of grant. The exercise price for options granted under the 2013 Plan must be at a price no less than 100% of the fair market value of a common share on the date of grant. The following table summarizes information about stock options exercisable at September 30, 2015: Period Ending Number Outstanding Exercisable September 30, 2015 425,911 8.31 7.64 During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company granted two options exercisable for a total of 32,014 common shares for which vesting is contingent on certain performance and market-based conditions. For options granted containing performance conditions, the fair value is determined on the date of grant. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, there was $200,376 expense recorded relating to the options granted in 2013 as the expense was accelerated as a result of market-based conditions being satisfied in January 2015 and the options vested. Options to purchase an aggregate of 203,298 shares of common stock were granted in the nine months ended September 30, 2015. No stock options were exercised, forfeited or cancelled during the three or nine months ended September 30, 2015. The total aggregate intrinsic value of stock options outstanding and exercisable as of September 30, 2015 was $1,719,626. Stock-based compensation is recognized for stock options granted to employees and non-employees and has been reported in the Company’s statement of operations as follows: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015 2014 2015 2014 Research and development expenses $ 181,081 $ 181,162 $ 649,305 $ 463,161 General and administrative expenses 355,188 276,627 990,625 1,108,734 Total stock-based compensation expense $ 536,269 $ 457,789 $ 1,639,930 $ 1,571,895 As of September 30, 2015, unamortized stock-based compensation was $4,028,645 and will be recognized over a weighted average period of 3.74 years. |

The Company raised approximately $7.1 million in net proceeds in the private placement of common stock and warrants. Additionally, on January 21, 2015, in a subsequent private placement, the Company sold an aggregate of 211,528 shares of common stock at a price of $9.33 per share and a warrant to purchase up to 211,528 shares of common stock at a price of $0.125 per share subject to the warrant. The Company raised approximately $1.9 million in net proceeds in the private placement of common stock and a warrant to purchase common stock. In both transactions, the exercise price of the warrants is $9.50 per share. The warrants will expire 3 years from their respective date of issuance. The warrants do not include a net-exercise feature. The warrants may be redeemed by the Company at a price of $0.001 per share upon notice to the holders thereof in the event that the closing bid for Aldeyra’s common stock for each of the fifteen consecutive trading days prior to such redemption is at least $20.00 per share and the average trading volume of Aldeyra’s common stock during such period is at least 50,000 shares per day. Following Aldeyra’s notification to the warrant holders of its exercise of the redemption right under the warrants, the warrant holders will have the option to exercise the warrants prior to the redemption date rather than having them redeemed. In connection with the Initial Public Offering, the Company issued the underwriters of the offering warrants to purchase up to 60,000 shares of common stock. The warrants are exercisable beginning on May 1, 2015 for cash or on a cashless basis at a per share price of $10.00. The warrants will expire on May 1, 2019. All of the warrants above were outstanding at September 30, 2015. |

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Use of Estimates | Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
Recently Issued Accounting Standards | Recently issued accounting standards In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2015-03, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs” (“ASU 2015-03”). The amendments in ASU 2015-03 require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. ASU 2015-03 is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017, with early adoption permitted. ASU 2015-03 should be applied on a retrospective basis to each individual period presented. Upon implementation, the change in reporting debt issuance costs will require the Company to reclassify any deferred financing costs from an asset to a reduction of the reported debt balance. The application of ASU 2015-03 is expected to reduce the Company’s total assets and liabilities but is not expected to have an impact on stockholders’ equity, results of operations or cash flows. |
