Popis: | Purpose To determine the effect of topical cyclosporine 0.09% on ocular surface regularity and the predictive accuracy of preoperative corneal power measurements in patients undergoing cataract surgery. Setting Private practice. Design Open-label, multicenter, prospective study. Methods Seventy-five patients (75 eyes) who presented for cataract surgery evaluation with signs of dry eye disease were prescribed topical cyclosporine 0.09% for 28 days BID. Corneal curvature measurements, slit lamp exam, and Standardized Patient Evaluation of Eye Dryness (SPEED) questionnaire were evaluated at the initial and follow-up visits. Cataract surgery occurred 1 to 3 weeks after the second biometry visit. Refraction and corrected distance visual acuity measurements were performed 1-month post-surgery. The primary outcome was the difference in absolute prediction error of 1-month spherical equivalent refractive outcome before and after cyclosporine treatment. Secondary outcomes included the effect of topical cyclosporine 0.09% on ocular surface irregularity. Results Sixty-four patients completed the study. The absolute prediction error of 1-month spherical equivalent refractive outcome was 0.39 ± 0.30 D vs 0.33 ± 0.25 D (P < 0.03) before and after treatment, respectively. The proportion of eyes that achieved the target refraction was greater based on measurements after topical cyclosporine 0.09% than would have occurred using pre-treatment measurements. Conclusion Cataract surgery patients with dry eye who are prescribed topical cyclosporine 0.09% BID for 28 days pre-surgery showed a statistically significant improvement in the prediction error of the spherical equivalent outcome of surgery. Other measures of dry eye severity showed significant improvements after treatment. Video Abstract Point your SmartPhone at the code above.
