Abstract
PURPOSE To compare noninfectious outcomes of intravitreal antibiotic steroid (IVAS) injection (moxifloxacin-triamcinolone) and postoperative topical nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAID) with a standard 3-drop therapy (TDT) regimen (topical antibiotic, steroid, and NSAID) in patients after cataract surgery. DESIGN Retrospective comparative clinical cohort study. METHODS In 3 study centers in the United States, a total of 2143 eyes (N = 2143 patients) underwent cataract surgery with IVAS-NSAID or TDT between 2017 and 2022. Preoperative data were included, including patients' age, iris color, medical history, and ocular history. Postoperative data, including best-corrected visual acuity, intraocular pressure (IOP), and the need for IOP-lowering medications, were recorded at 1-week, 1-month, and 6-month time points. The primary outcome measures were postoperative complications, defined as persistent anterior chamber inflammation, persistent corneal edema (PCE), rebound inflammation, and cystoid macular edema, were compared between the 2 groups. RESULTS There were 1079 eyes in the IVAS-NSAID group and 1064 eyes in the TDT group. Best-corrected visual acuity and IOP were similar between IVAS-NSAID and TDT eyes at all time points. A portion (11.6%) of TDT eyes experienced postoperative complications compared with 6.5% in IVAS-NSAID eyes (P < .001). Femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery was associated with increased rates of PCE in IVAS-NSAID eyes, and eyes with dark irides had a higher incidence of cystoid macular edema, PCE, and rebound inflammation in the IVAS-NSAID group. CONCLUSION The IVAS-NSAID regimen overall had similar postoperative outcomes and fewer complications compared with the TDT regimen. IVAS-NSAID may be considered a safe alternative to topical regimens in non-femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery and patients with light irides.

Dry eye in the upper blepharoplasty patient: a study comparing orbicularis-sparing versus orbicularis-excising techniques. Graefes Arch Clin Exp Ophthalmol 2023; 261:3625-3634.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare subjective and objective dry eye syndrome (DES) metrics preoperatively and postoperatively in patients undergoing bilateral upper eyelid blepharoplasty (ULB) using orbicularis-sparing versus orbicularis-excising techniques. METHODS A double-blind, randomized clinical trial was conducted on patients without prior DES or other severe conditions who presented to our institution between 2017 and 2019 for routine functional ULB. Patients were randomized into two treatment arms: bilateral ULB using the orbicularis-sparing technique or bilateral ULB using the orbicularis-excising technique. One subjective and seven objective DES assessments were performed on all patients preoperatively and 1 month and 1 year after surgery. RESULTS A total of 63 patients were recruited for the study. Standard Patient Evaluation of Eye Dryness (SPEED) scores decreased in both treatment groups at 1 month and 1 year postoperatively. This change did not significantly vary based on surgical technique. Objective DES assessments were not significantly changed at both postoperative time points for either group. There was a correlation between the severity of preoperative DES symptoms and the subjective improvement of DES symptoms postoperatively in both groups. CONCLUSIONS ULB with an orbicularis-sparing or orbicularis-excising technique does not worsen subjective or objective DES metrics and so, surgeons may confidently use either surgical technique. These findings may impact postoperative expectations for surgeons and patients alike.
