About this trial

This is an interventional other trial for Inflammation Following Ocular Surgery focused on measuring Loteprednol Etabonate

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects must have a need for cataract surgery in both eyes and can be dosed in the surgical eyes.
  • Non-pregnant, non-lactating females, or women who are post-menopausal (defined as at least 12 months natural, spontaneous amenorrhea), or are naturally or surgically sterile (hysterectomy; bilateral oophorectomy; bilateral tubal ligation with surgery at least 6 weeks prior to study initiation). Females of childbearing potential must have a confirmed absence of pregnancy according to a negative urine pregnancy test and must be using one of the following acceptable birth control methods: Intrauterine device in place for at least 90 days. Barrier method (condom or diaphragm) with spermicide. Stable hormonal contraceptive for at least 90 days prior to study and through study completion. Abstinence (if the subject becomes sexually active during the study she must agree to use the barrier method of birth control [condom or diaphragm and spermicide] for the duration of the study).
  • Male subjects should use medically reliable contraception methods such as condom or vasectomy.
  • Subjects are able to perform the activities required by the study protocol and have provided written informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects having an IOP less than 5 mmHg or greater than 24 mmHg.
  • Known or suspected allergy or hypersensitivity to loteprednol etabonate or any ingredient in the formulation or container, or to other corticosteroids, including an increase in IOP after steroid instillation.
  • Subjects unable to tolerate instillation of study product by the investigator or qualified staff.
  • Use of other investigational drugs within 30 days prior to dosing and for the duration of the study.
  • Subject has used any medication, by any route, containing loteprednol etabonate within 7 days prior to Visit 1.
