[Comparison of the anti-inflammatory effect of collyria of dexamethasone and diclofenac].
A clinical double-blind study of patients who had undergone intracapsular cataract extraction with intraocular implant was performed in an attempt to compare the anti-inflammatory effect of Dexamethasone and Diclofenac eye drops. The parameters compared were: degree of inflammation of the anterior chamber; pachymetry of the cornea; objective and subjective tolerance of the eye drops; examination of the fundus (fluorescein angiography on the 60th day); intraocular pressure. The statistical analysis of the different parameters shows a tendency in favor of the non-steroidal agent for intraocular pressure; there was no apparent difference in the anti-inflammatory actions of the two substances.
