Ketorolac Levels in Vitreous and Aqueous Samples From Patients Undergoing Combined Cataract and Pars Plana Vitrectomy Surgeries With and Without Intracameral Phenylephrine 1.0% / Ketorolac 0.3%

Summary

This is a clinical trial evaluating Ketorolac levels in vitreous and aqueous humor samples from patients undergoing combined cataract and pars plana vitrectomy surgeries with and without intracameral phenylephrine 1.0% / ketorolac 0.3% (OMIDRIA). Patients not receiving intracameral OMIDRIA will receive topical ketorolac prior to cataract surgery/pars plana vitrectomy.

Detailed Description

Cataract surgery can result in intra- and postoperative inflammation. Various strategies are employed to prevent and combat this inflammatory reaction, including preoperative topical NSAIDs, intraoperative NSAIDs or steroids, and postoperative topical NSAIDs and/or steroids. The only FDA-approved NSAID for intraoperative use is the ketorolac component of OMIDRIA® (Rayner Surgical, Bellevue, WA, USA). Animal studies have assessed the concentration of ketorolac in the vitreous and demonstrated therapeutic levels out to 10 hours postoperatively. There is no human data for ketorolac levels in the vitreous following intracameral administration of OMIDRIA at the time of cataract surgery. This study will enroll approximately 10-20 patients undergoing combined cataract surgery immediately followed by pars plana vitrectomy. Aqueous and vitreous samples will be taken intraoperatively and sent to an independent lab for analysis of ketorolac concentrations.
