To evaluate the effect of bromfenac ophthalmic solution 0.09% for reduction of intraoperative miosis and pain in patient who have undergone femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery.
This prospective cross-sectional randomized clinical study included 60 patients with senile cataract in the absence of significant ocular comorbidity. The patients received 0.09% bromfenac ophthalmic solution or control placebo twice a day for 3 days before surgery. Pupil diameter was measured at the initiation and finalization of femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery and pain quantification was assessed by analogous pain scale at one day follow-up.
