Summary

The purpose of this research is to investigate the effects of ripasudil administered as an ophthalmic solution in patients with FED after femtosecond laser assisted cataract surgery. The secondary aim is to identity the characteristics of patients who will benefit the most with the use of ripasudil based on the test results obtained from this study.

Conditions

  • Fuchs' Endothelial Dystrophy
  • Cataract

Interventions

DRUG

Ripasudil

Glanatec Ophthalmic Solution 0.4% W/V with ripasudil hydrochloride hydrate as active ingredient is currently being used by patients with ocular hypertension or open-angle glaucoma. Inhibition of Rho kinase to facilitate aqueous outflow from the conventional outflow pathway via the trabecular meshwork and Schlemm's canal has been suggested as the IOP-lowering mechanism of action by ripasudil.
