Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate which anti-inflammatory treatment is best at preventing postoperative inflammation following cataract surgery. We want to compare topical prophylaxis with NSAID eye drops to topical prophylaxis with a combination of NSAID and prednisolone. We also want to compare topical prophylaxis with eye drops to drop-less surgery where the anti-inflammatory drug is administered to the subtenonal space at the conclusion of the surgical procedure. In addition, we want to investigate if topical anti-inflammatory prophylaxis should be initiated preoperatively or postoperatively. The primary outcome is change in central macular thickness, measured by optical coherence tomography, 3 months after surgery.

Conditions

  • Postoperative Cystoid Macular Edema
  • Irvine-Gass Syndrome

Interventions

DRUG

NSAID + prednisolone, postoperative

Ketorolactrometamol 5 mg/ml and prednisolone acetate 1% w/v eye drops are administered 3 times pr. day, starting on the day of surgery and until 3 weeks after surgery.

DRUG

NSAID, preoperative

Ketorolactrometamol 5 mg/ml eye drops are administered 3 times pr. day, starting 3 days prior to surgery and until 3 weeks after surgery.

DRUG

NSAID, postoperative
