Does comparison of the anti-inflammatory effects of diclofenac and flurbiprofen eye drop after cataract extraction? Context: A clinical double-blind study was performed in patients who had undergone extracapsular cataract extraction and intraocular lens implantation (ECCE+IOL) to compare the anti-inflammatory effects of diclofenac sodium 0.1% and flurbiprofen 0.03% eye drops. The diclofenac group included 21 eyes of 21 patients and the flurbiprofen group included 22 eyes of 22 patients. The parameters compared were pachymetry of the cornea, corneal surface changes, intraocular pressure (IOP) and the degree of inflammation of the anterior chamber at one, three and six weeks after cataract surgery. There was no statistically significant difference between the two treatment groups in corneal pachymetry, corneal surface changes, IOP and the anterior chamber inflammation (p>0.05).

Both drugs were well tolerated and may be safely used to reduce inflammation for cataract surgery. Final Decision: yes
