简要总结
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that Besivance is equal to Vigamox in safety and tolerance when used prophylactically in subjects undergoing routine cataract surgery.
详细描述
Subjects will be assigned to receive either Besivance or Vigamox (1:1) to be administered as 1 drop in the study eye 4 times daily starting 3 days prior to cataract surgery and continuing for 7 days post-operatively.
Sixty subjects (30 from Ophthalmology Consultants and 30 from Ophthalmology Associates) of any race and either sex, requiring cataract extraction with planned implantation of a posterior chamber intraocular lens.

- •Patients who are able to understand and sign an informed consent form that has been approved by an IRB
排除标准
- •Planned multiple procedures during cataract/IOL implantation surgery. Note: A planned limbal relaxing incision may be performed for the correction of astigmatism

- •Congenital ocular anomaly (eg, aniridia, congenital cataract) in the operative eye
- •A visually nonfunctional fellow eye defined as a best corrected visual acuity </= 35 ETDRS letters (20/200 Snellen equivalent) or worse
- •Participation in any other investigational drug or device study within 30 days before cataract surgery
- •Known or suspected allergy or hypersensitivity to any component of either test article
- •Women of childbearing potential (those who are not surgically sterilized or post menopausal) may not participate in the study if any of the following conditions exist:
