Efficacy and safety of indomethacin 0.1% versus flurbiprofen 0.03% eyedrops in inflammation after argon laser trabeculoplasty. The Belgian Study Group on Glaucoma.

After Argon Laser Trabeculoplasty (ALT), non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (Indomethacin 1% suspension and Flurbiprofen 0.03% solution) were shown to be efficient in the management of post laser inflammation. To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Indomethacin 0.1% solution versus Flurbiprofen 0.03% eyedrops in that purpose. 64 patients suffering from glaucoma were recruited in a multicenter randomized double masked study. The results demonstrate that Indomethacin 0.1% eyedrops is as efficient as Flurbiprofen 0.03% in terms of control of post ALT inflammation, with a good tolerance.
