Stopped: COVID-19 challenges to recruitment
In this study, the investigators are comparing dexamethasone ophthalmic insert (DEXTENZA®) to the current standard of care, prednisolone acetate 1% eye drops, in a glaucoma population receiving both cataract and minimally-invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS). DEXTENZA® and prednisolone acetate 1% drops are both steroids used to control inflammation after eye surgery. DEXTENZA®'s method of delivery differs by offering a sustained release of steroid that does not necessitate postoperative anti-inflammatory eye drops. The investigators hypothesize that DEXTENZA® will be as safe as prednisolone acetate 1% drops and as effective at controlling postoperative inflammation following concomitant cataract-MIGS in a glaucoma population. The investigators also hypothesize that DEXTENZA® will be preferred by patients over prednisolone acetate 1% drops.
