    Arms of the Study

    Arm 1

    Arm Type

    Experimental

    Arm Label

    VIGADEXA

    Arm Description

    Moxifloxacin 0.5%/Dexamethasone 0.1% ophthalmic solution, 1 drop instilled in the study eye 2 days before surgery, followed by 1 drop instilled 4 times a day the day before surgery. On the day of surgery, 1 drop was instilled 60 minutes prior to the procedure.

    Outcomes

    Primary Outcome Measures

    Mean Aqueous Humor Concentration of Moxifloxacin
    A 0.150 milliliter sample of the aqueous humor was obtained during cataract surgery. The concentration of moxifloxacin was measured by a validated procedure using high performance liquid-spectrometry.
