Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Active Comparator: Group 1 NSAIDs pre

Topical nepafenac (Nevanac) 3 mg/ml started 1 day before surgery

Drug: Nepafenac Ophthalmic
Topical nepafenac (Nevanac) 3 mg/ml starter the day before surgery

Active Comparator: Group 2 NSAIDs post

Topical nepafenac (Nevanac) 3 mg/ml started the day after surgery

Drug: Nepafenac Ophthalmic
Topical nepafenac (Nevanac) 3 mg/ml started the day after surgery

Active Comparator: Group 3 NSAIDs and steroids

Topical nepafenac (Nevanac) 3 mg/ml + topical dexamethasone (Spersadex) started the day after surgery

Drug: Nepafenac Ophthalmic
Topical nepafenac (Nevanac) 3 mg/ml started the day after surgery

Drug: Dexamethasone Ophthalmic
Topical dexamethasone 1 mg/ml (Spersadex) started the day after surgery

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Central macular thickness after 6 weeks [6 weeks after surgery]

    Measure central macular thickness (in um) on optical coherence tomography (OCT)

  2. Cystoid macular edema (CME) after 6 weeks [6 weeks after surgery]

    Determine if the patient has CME based on evaluation of macular cysts on optical coherence tomography (OCT)

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Intraocular inflammation [Preoperatively, and 1 week, 6 weeks, 6 months after surgery]

    Measured by laser flare meter

  2. Visual outcome [Preoperatively, and 1 week, 6 weeks, 6 months after surgery]

    Measure uncorrected and corrected distance visual acuity using visual acuity chart

  3. Intraocular pressure [Preoperatively, and 1 week, 6 weeks, 6 months after surgery]

    Measured by tonometry

  4. Central macular thickness (CMT) [Preoperatively, 1 week, and 6 months after surgery]

    Measure CMT (in um) on optical coherence tomography (OCT)

  5. Cystoid macular edema (CME) [Preoperatively, 1 week, and 6 months after surgery]

    Determine if the patient has CME based on evaluation of macular cysts on optical coherence tomography (OCT)

Eligibility Criteria

Criteria

Ages Eligible for Study:
18 Years and Older
Sexes Eligible for Study:
All
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
No
Inclusion Criteria:
  • Patients must be 18 years and older at the time of the signing of the informed consent. There is no upper age limit.

  • Scheduled for standard phacoemulsification cataract surgery (group 1 - 3)

  • Scheduled for combined phacoemulsification cataract surgery and MIGS stent (group 4)

  • Ability to cooperate fairly well during the examinations

  • Willing to participate in the study and capable of giving informed consent, which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions in the informed consent form (ICF) and in this protocol.

Exclusion Criteria:
  • Contraindications for use of any medication (as listed in the approved SPC, e.g. allergy, pregnancy, breastfeeding)

  • Pregnancy

  • Diabetes

  • Mature cataract

  • Active or chronic uveitis with recommendation for steroid treatment

  • Previous trabeculectomy

  • Other ophthalmological conditions and/or complicating factors requiring steroid treatment (group 1 - 3)

  • Cornea pathology requiring specific medication regimens (e.g. herpes pathology, previous corneal transplantation)

Patients with complications or other complicating factors during surgery that causes the surgeon to demand both NSAIDs and steroid treatment will be excluded from the main analysis. These patients will be followed postoperatively as part of the study and included in additional analyses (for example as part of an intention to treat analysis).

For patients scheduled for cataract surgery in both eyes, only the first operated eye will be included, however, both eyes will be examined.
