Additional Information

Additional Relevant Details In this prospective, randomized, subject-masked contralateral eye study, 25 subjects with uncomplicated cataract received either Tri-Moxi-Vanc intraocular solution injected transzonularly into the vitreous or a topical formulation of prednisolone acetate, moxifloxacin hydrochloride and ketorolac tromethamine (Pred-Moxi-Ketor) for 1 week, followed by prednisolone acetate and ketorolac tromethamine (Pred-Ketor) for 2 to 4 weeks. Each patient received the opposite treatment for the second eye surgery. In the following month, Tri-Moxi-Vanc and drops produced no statistically significant difference in intraocular pressure immediately (P=0.81) or over time (P=0.74), central macular thickness at 1 week and 1 month (P=0.18), central corneal thickness (P=0.92), or reported pain (P=0.67). Both groups expressed similar satisfaction with surgery, but patients who received Tri-Moxi-Vanc preferred the overall experience (P=0.01).
