Abstract
From a societal perspective in the U.S., a topical perioperative antibiotic with a 500 μg intracameral moxifloxacin costing $22 dollars or less was cost-effective and cost-saving. From a healthcare sector perspective, a $20 intracameral moxifloxacin was cost-effective but not cost-saving. Adjuvant intracameral moxifloxacin had greater effectiveness in improving QALYs than topical antibiotics.
