Summary
Cataract surgery is routinely performed with anesthesia care, whereas anesthesia care for other elective, low-risk, outpatient procedures is applied more selectively. We hypothesize that sublingual melatonin will provide superior anxiolysis and sedation while maintaining a high safety profile and minimizing hemodynamic disturbances.
