A Randomized, Observer-masked, Parallel-group, Multicenter Trial Evaluating the Ocular Penetration of 1.5% Levofloxacin Ophthalmic Solution and 0.5% Moxifloxacin Ophthalmic Solution in Subjects Undergoing Corneal Transplant Surgery
Abstract
Compare the corneal penetration of levofloxacin 1.5% and moxifloxacin 0.5% in patients undergoing penetrating keratoplasty (PK)
Conditions: Corneal Transplantation.
Primary outcome: Concentration of levofloxacin and moxifloxacin in the corneal tissue.
Enrollment: 60 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design. Reported size: 60 participants or records.
