Summary

This study is being done to find out whether two commonly used corticosteroid injections for knee osteoarthritis - betamethasone and triamcinolone hexacetonide - have different effects on eye pressure (intraocular pressure). Adults with painful early-stage knee osteoarthritis who have not improved with standard treatments receive one of these injections into the knee joint as part of their usual care. Eye pressure in both eyes is measured before the injection and one week later. By comparing the change in eye pressure between the two steroid groups, the study aims to better understand the risk of steroid-related increases in eye pressure and to help doctors choose safer treatment options, especially for patients who may be at risk for glaucom

Conditions

  • Knee Osteoarthritis (Knee OA)
  • Intraocular Pressure

Interventions

DRUG

Diprospan

Single intra-articular injection of betamethasone into the affected knee joint at baseline as part of routine care for symptomatic early-stage knee osteoarthritis. No additional intra-articular corticosteroid injections are given during the follow-up period.

DRUG

artropan

Single intra-articular injection of triamcinolone hexacetonide into the affected knee joint at baseline as part of routine care for symptomatic early-stage knee osteoarthritis. No additional intra-articular corticosteroid injections are given during the follow-up period
