Ketorolac levels in eye fluid during cataract and vitrectomy surgery
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study looks at how much of the drug ketorolac (a pain and inflammation medicine) gets into the fluid inside your eye when it's given as eye drops during combined cataract and vitrectomy surgery. It may help doctors understand if using another drug called phenylephrine alongside it changes those levels.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are having cataract surgery followed by vitrectomy (a procedure to remove the gel-like fluid inside your eye) in the same operation.
- You have a condition that requires vitrectomy, such as an epiretinal membrane, macular hole, or bothersome floaters.
- You are 18 years of age or older.
- You have not had a vitrectomy in that eye before.
- You are not having any serious complications during your cataract surgery, like a tear in the lens capsule.

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 study looks at how well your vision works and how different cataract surgery lens choices perform. It may help researchers better understand what affects sight after cataract surgery.
This trial compares two ways to prevent inflammation and comfort you after cataract surgery: usual antibiotic/steroid eye drops versus a “no-drops” option that is placed during surgery. It mainly looks at patient preference, comfort, and ease of treatment after surgery.
This study tests whether an anti-inflammatory eye drop alone works better than a combination of anti-inflammatory and steroid eye drops to reduce pain and swelling after a laser treatment for open-angle glaucoma. The goal is to find the safest and most effective way to manage recovery.
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 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.
