Eye-drop medicine to help prevent infection after cataract surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Eyes & vision, Infections clinical trials.
This trial tests an antibiotic medicine placed inside the eye during cataract surgery to lower the risk of a serious eye infection called endophthalmitis. If you need cataract surgery and meet the safety rules, you may be asked to receive this preventive treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have visually significant cataracts that are being treated with cataract surgery
- You are not allergic to fluoroquinolone antibiotics (common types of antibiotic eye drops)
- You are not allergic to cobalamin (vitamin B12)

This study tests a new anti-inflammatory eye drop (PRO-232) in people who had routine cataract surgery on one eye the day before. The goal is to see if it helps control swelling and pain without problems.
This study compares two ways to prevent complications after cataract surgery. One group gets a special combination of eye drops and a steroid injection before surgery, and the other group gets standard care. The goal is to see which approach leads to fewer problems after surgery.
This trial tests if an antibiotic injection directly into the cornea can help when standard eye drops are not working for a stubborn bacterial eye infection.
This trial tests if an eye drop called Zamidine® can help prevent infections in people who have a history of repeated eye infections (conjunctivitis) and are about to have eye surgery. The goal is to see if it safely reduces the risk of surgery-related eye infections.
This trial tests three different anti-inflammatory eye drops to see which works best for pain and swelling after cataract surgery. You may join if you are scheduled for cataract surgery only, and you can apply the drops yourself or have help.
This study compares different anti-inflammatory and pain-relief eye drops after cataract surgery to see which one works better. It focuses on whether preservative-free drops cause fewer problems (like irritation) while still protecting the eye during healing.
