First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 26 times
Summary
This study tests whether injecting a common antibiotic (moxifloxacin) directly into the eye at the end of cataract surgery can prevent endophthalmitis, a rare but serious infection that can cause blindness. Researchers plan to enroll 60,000 adults with cataracts who are not allergic to the antibiotic. Participants will receive the injection and be monitored afterward for any signs of infection.
