Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the effects of Fydrane (after oxybuprocain chlorhydrate 0.4% + tetracaine chlorhydrate 0.1% eye-drop instillation) and the standard mydriatic-anaesthetic eye-drop protocol(oxybuprocain chlorhydrate 0.4% + tetracaine chlorhydrate 0.1%, phenylephrine 10% and tropicamide 1%) on ocular surface.; Secondary Objective: To assess changes in best corrected visual acuity recovery. To evaluate epithelial alterations. To describe changes in conjunctival hyperaemia. To assess changes in intraocular pressure. To evaluate the centre point-spread function by the objective scatter index (OSI) in the Optical Quality Analysis System (OQAS) HD AnalyzerTM. To determine changes in the Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) questionnaire. To describe ocular symptoms/signs experienced by patients. To assess patients’ perceptions on satisfaction with study treatments. To determine satisfaction assessed by investigators. To describe the safety profile of study treatments. ;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint is the change in corneal/conjunctival surface staining measured as per the Oxford schema (corneal staining with fluorescein) and van Bijsterveld schema (conjunctival staining with lissamine green) with Fydrane® versus the standard eye-drop protocol from baseline (visit 0) to 7 days post-surgery (visit 3). In addition, changes from baseline (visit 0) to just after surgery (visit 1) and from baseline (visit 0) to 12-36 hours post-surgery (visit 2) will be assessed.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: The evaluation per eye is performed on the day of the surgery, 12-36 hours after surgery and 7 (±1) days after surgery. Estimated period: 28 days.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): The change in best corrected visual acuity according to the Snellen test from baseline (visit 0) to 7 days post-surgery (visit 3). The percentage of patients with epithelial alterations evidenced by slit-lamp examination (i.e. none, mild, and significant) 12-36 hours post-surgery (visit 2). The change in conjunctival hyperaemia as per MacMonnies photographic scale (0 to 5) from baseline (right before study treatment administration at visit 1) to 7 days post-surgery (visit 3). In addition, changes in conjunctival hyperaemia from baseline (right before study treatment administration at visit 1) to just after surgery (visit 1) and from baseline (right before study treatment administration at visit 1) to 12-36 hours post-surgery (visit 2) will be described. The change in intraocular pressure from baseline (visit 0) to 7 days post-surgery (visit 3). Point-spread function measured by the objective scatter index (OSI) in the Optical Quality Analysis System (OQAS) HD AnalyzerTM 12-36 hours post-surgery (visit 2) and 7 days post-surgery (visit 3). ? The change in the Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) from baseline (right before study treatment administration at visit 1) to 7 days post-surgery (visit 3). Percentages of patients with ocular symptoms as perceived by patients and signs assessed by investigators according to ordinal scales ranging from 0 (absent/none) to 3 (severe) 12-36 hours post-surgery (visit 2) and 7 days post-surgery (visit 3). Patients’ satisfaction with study treatments assessed on an ordinal scale ranging from 0 (very satisfactory) to 3 (unsatisfactory) just after surgery (visit 1). Satisfaction assessed by the investigators according to an ordinal scale ranging from 0 (very satisfactory) to 3 (unsatisfactory) just after surgery (visit 1). The incidence of adverse events related to study treatments.
