NCT02794610

Brief Summary

Investigators aim to evaluate the ocular penetration of topical tacrolimus 0.03% eye drops. Topical tacrolimus 0.03% will be instilled into the eyes of patients 15 minutes before cataract surgery. Aqueous samples will be collected at the time of cataract surgery and will be subjected to detection of presence and level of tacrolimus.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Detection of the concentration of tacrolimus ( nanograms/milliliter) in the anterior chamber following ocular topical application.

    From date of obtaining the aqueous samples until getting the laboratory results of concentration of topical tacrolimus in the aqueous humor up to 2 months

Study Arms (1)

Topical tacrolimus

EXPERIMENTAL

Ten patients will be include. Topical tacrolimus 0.05% will be instilled into the eyes of patients 15 minutes before cataract surgery. Aqueous samples will be collected at the time of cataract surgery and will be subjected to detection of presence and level of tacrolimus.

Drug: Tacrolimus

Interventions

Topical tacrolimus 0.05% eye drops will be instilled into the eyes of patients every minute for 5 minutes. After 15 minutes, at the time of cataract surgery, aqueous samples will be collected and will be subjected to detection of presence and level of tacrolimus.
