Effectiveness of topical cycloplegics to treat pain in the setting of anterior segment injury or inflammation: A systematic review and meta-analyses.
Abstract
Topical cycloplegic agents often are used in ophthalmology in the context of management of ocular inflammation. Preliminary searches of the literature provided little evidence to support their use in relieving pain or reducing inflammation. The goal of this study was to evaluate the current literature for any evidence regarding the effectiveness of cycloplegics for treatment of pain or inflammation in patients with anterior segment injury or inflammation through a systematic review and meta-analysis.
