Eligibility Criteria

AgeUp to 3 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17)

You may qualify if:

  • Undergoing uncomplicated cataract surgery with or without a posterior chamber intraocular lens (IOL) implantation.
  • If a contact lens is used for correction of post-operative aphakia, it must be a silicone elastomer lens or a rigid gas permeable lens (no water content).

You may not qualify if:

  • Presence of clinically significant gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, hepatic, renal, hematological, endocrine, neurological, psychiatric, respiratory, or other medical condition that could increase the risk to the subject as determined by the investigator.
  • Has a post-traumatic cataract.
  • Presence of active or suspected viral, bacterial, or fungal disease in the study eye.
  • Ocular hypertension with an IOP in the study eye \>25 mmHg at Screening with or without treatment with anti-glaucoma monotherapy.
  • Subjects who have received a periocular corticosteroid injection in the study eye in the 3 months prior to Screening.
  • Subjects who have received any intravitreal corticosteroid delivery vehicle (eg, Retisert®, Ozurdex®, Iluvien®) in the study eye at any time.
