5. Study Description

Brief Summary
To compare the signs and symptoms of dry eye after cataract surgery between subjects randomized to receive intraoperative dexamethasone in addition to the use of a standard topical post-op treatment regimen.
Detailed Description
Forty patients requiring cataract surgery will be randomized to treatment of post-operative inflammation with a single intraoperative dexamethasone injection plus a standard course of topical ophthalmic corticosteroid drops or the standard treatment alone. Dry eye testing will be administered at baseline, 1 week and 3 weeks following surgery.
