Summary

The objective of this study is to compare the maintenance of intraoperative mydriasis during cataract surgery between two drugs: epinephrine, which has routinely been used for decades, and Omidria, a newly FDA approved combination drug of phenylephrine and ketorolac. Patients undergoing cataract surgery that are enrolled in the trial will randomly receive one of the drugs in one eye, and the other eye will receive the drug during the subsequent cataract surgery.

Conditions

  • Cataract

Interventions

DRUG

Phenylephrine-ketorolac

Pehnylephrine-ketorolac is a combination of an alpha-one agonist (phenylephrine) and an NSAID (ketorolac). One 4-mL bottle of 1% phenylephrine/3% ketorolac is added to the irrigation solution during cataract surgery.
