Comparative analysis of intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide-moxifloxacin versus standard perioperative eyedrops in cataract surgery.

Purpose: To compare the effectiveness of intravitreal injection of triamcinolone acetonide-moxifloxacin (Tri-Moxi) to a standard eyedrop regimen in controlling postoperative inflammation, corneal edema, and the rate of high intraocular pressure (IOP) among cataract patients.

Setting: Loma Linda University Eye Institute, California, USA.

Design: Retrospective longitudinal comparative study.

Incidence of implantable Collamer lens-induced cataract.

Objective: Although the literature on the implantable Collamer lens (ICL) suggests an increasing rate of anterior subcapsular cataract (ASC) development with increasing age and decreasing anterior chamber depth (ACD), the exact correlation is not known. We performed a retrospective observation study of 1653 eyes and calculated the incidence of ICL removal with cataract extraction and intraocular lens placement (CE-IOL) as a result of ASC, in correlation to patient's age and ACD.

Design: Retrospective observation study.
