Study highlights potential of alternative anti-inflammatory agent

A single postoperative injection of XG-102 was non-inferior to dexamethasone eye drops in the management of surgery-induced ocular inflammation in a phase 2 randomized, controlled trial.

XG-102 was administered by subconjunctival injection at the end of surgery.
