To Compare the Safety and Efficacy of Intracameral Levofloxacin and Intracameral Cefazolin in Reducing Rates of Endophthalmitis Following Cataract Surgery.

Patients with senile cataracts undergoing phacoemulsification were assigned to receive intracameral levofloxacin (0.1ml/0.5mg) or intracameral cefazolin (0.1ml/1mg). The primary endpoint was the occurrence of endophthalmitis during the 3 month follow-up period. Secondary endpoints included best-corrected visual acuity (BVCA), the presence of anterior chamber (AC) inflammation with grading of AC cells and presence of flare, along with intraocular pressure (IOP), corneal cell thickness (CCT), central foveal thickness (CFT) and cell density.
