Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Control of ocular inflammation post-phacoemulsification as evaluated though the presence of cells in the anterior chamber | 16 days | The inflammation will be evaluated though the presence of cells in the anterior chamber. For this, the number of cells per high-power field in the anterior chamber was counted and recorded on a scale where 0 indicates ≤ 5 cells, 1 = 5 to 10 cells, 2 = 11 to 20 cells, 3 = 21 to 50 cells, and 4 corresponds to ≥ 50 cells. |
