About this trial
This is a randomized, double-masked study to evaluate the tolerability and safety of IRX-101 versus 5% povidone-iodine (PI) in subjects receiving intravitreal anti-VEGF injections.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Assessment of post-intravitreal injection eye pain
Demonstrate the superiority of IRX-101 compared to PI in terms of reducing patient-reported post-intravitreal injection eye pain; pain will be assessed using the visual analog pain scale, a validated patient-reported outcome measure (questionnaire) for assessing patient's subjective pain and discomfort
Secondary outcomes
Change in post-IVT corneal epitheliopathy as evaluated by corneal fluorescein staining scores
Demonstrate the superiority of IRX-101 compared to PI in terms of reducing corneal epitheliopathy / corneal fluorescein staining post-intravitreal injection; corneal staining will be obtained using validated Oxford Corneal Staining scale of 0 (no staining) to 5 (maximal corneal staining)
