Prospective, Randomized Study Comparing Effect on Wound Healing of Vigamox (Moxifloxacin 0.5% Ophthalmic Solution) and Cravit (Levofloxacin 0.5% Ophthalmic Solution) Administered Post-Surgically in Patients Undergoing Cataract Extraction
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of Vigamox and Cravit on corneal wound healing after cataract surgery.
Conditions: Cataract Extraction.
Primary outcome: Percentage of patients with epithelial defect.
Enrollment: 79 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: 79 participants or records.
