Optimizing pain management and pupil dilation in cataract surgery: a systematic review and meta-analysis of phenylephrine/ketorolac (OMIDRIA®)

2025Open accessAlexandria University

Abstract

Phenylephrine/ketorolac (OMIDRIA®) demonstrates superior efficacy in maintaining intraoperative mydriasis, reducing postoperative pain, and minimizing opioid use without increasing adverse events. This combination offers a preferable alternative to traditional agents, potentially setting a new standard for pain management and pupil dilation in cataract surgery.
