Efficacy

Proven comfort, nothing extra required1

Phase III Data*

Rate of successful anesthesia without supplemental treatment

  • Measured equivalence of IHEEZO® to tetracaine 0.5% solution
  • Primary endpoint: successful surface anesthesia
    • Patient rating of 0 (no pain/discomfort) or 1 (occasional pressure sensation, less than 5 separate times during the procedure) at T4
    • Without any supplemental treatment

Patients asked about ocular discomfort at 4 timepoints:

Just before
first incision

End of
capsulorhexis

End of
phacoemulsification

Just before intraocular
lens insertion

Successful anesthesia was achieved with 92.1% of patients in the IHEEZO arm and 90.5% in the tetracaine arm.

Defined as a patient rating of 0 or 1 just before intraocular lens insertion without any supplemental treatment.

Post-hoc analysis

A difference patients can feel—quickly2

Patients reported a lower pain score with IHEEZO1

A post-hoc analysis of the Phase III study found that although the incidence of ocular surface anesthesia was comparable vs tetracaine, higher pain scores were more common in the tetracaine arm.1

In the IHEEZO group, 12 patients reported a score of 2.
