Purpose: to analyze the efficacy of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) after cataract extraction. To determine the NSAID’s role in post-operative inflammatory processes treatment. Results: the rationale of NSAIDs use before and after cataract surgery was validated. The NSAIDs efficacy in terms of post-op inflammation reduction was confirmed.
