Omeros receives FDA approval of Omidria for use in cataract and other intraocular lens replacement procedures

FDA

2 Jun 2014 - Omeros Corporation today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved Omidria (phenylephrine and ketorolac injection) 1%/0.3% for use during cataract surgery or intraocular lens replacement to maintain pupil size by preventing intraoperative miosis (pupil constriction) and to reduce postoperative pain. The approval comes with no post-marketing commitments other than the previously agreed study of Omidria for use in pediatric patients, which, if successfully completed, makes the drug eligible for an additional six months of marketing exclusivity in the U.S.
