Abstract :
<p>&nbsp;Aim: To compare the effectiveness of topical omfenac as an alternative to topical prednisolone acetate in controlling inflammation after cataract surgery. Material and Methods: The effect of topical omfenac (0.09%) following cataract surgery was evaluated and compared to routine corticosteroid prednisolone acetate (1%) in a comparative prospective interventional study .Both the groups were comparable in baseline parameters.50 patients in each group were followed up post operatively for one month. Visual acuity, post&ndash;operative inflammatory response for the two drugs with respect to ciliary congestion and iritis was graded at 1, 7 and 30 days. Results: The two groups did not show statistically significant difference in improvement for any of the variables. There were no side effects for topical omfenac and it was well tolerated. Conclusion: Bromfenac is as effective as topical prednisolone acetate in controlling inflammation after cataract surgery.</p>
