Knee pain relief may come with eye risk: study compares two steroid injections

NCT ID NCT07242846

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looked at whether two common steroid injections for knee osteoarthritis—betamethasone and triamcinolone hexacetonide—affect eye pressure differently. Eighty adults with early-stage knee pain received one of the injections, and their eye pressure was measured before and one week after. The goal is to help doctors choose safer options, especially for patients at risk of glaucoma.
