Evaluation of a drug during pediatric cataract surgery
The purpose of this research study is to determine if adding a drug to the rinsing solution helps keep the pupil dilated (open) during cataract surgery and to see if it reduces eye pain after surgery. The study doctor is also doing this study to find out if receiving this drug is better in children than receiving the standard of care treatment, Phenylephrine HCl alone.
