Regional eye blocks are usually preferred for ophthalmic procedures. Peribulbar block (PBB) is a safe alternative for patients undergoing cataract surgery. Many studies tried to solve this issue by means of prolonging the duration of action of the local anesthetics used. Several drugs were tried as adjuncts to local anesthetics, and their effects have been studied. Midazolam added to the list of adjuvant used in the subarachnoid or epidural block can produce analgesia, probably mediated by the benzodiazepine-Gamma Amino-Butyric Acid(GABA) receptor complex.
The investigators hypothesized that the addition of midazolam to lidocaine will improve the quality of the peribulbar block; fasten the onset and prolonging its anesthetic and analgesic duration.

| Group C(control) | Placebo Comparator | Peribulbar block without midazolam (peribulbar block using a mixture of lidocaine 2%, hyaluronidase 15 IU / ml) |
|
| Group M1 | Experimental | Peribulbar block with midazolam 50 µg (peribulbar block using a mixture of lidocaine 2%, hyaluronidase 15 IU / ml. plus midazolam 50 µg/ml) |

| Peribulbar block (control) | Procedure | The Peribulbar block was performed by inserting the needle percutaneously at the area bounded by 1- The imaginary perpendicular line joining inferior lacrimal papilla to the inferior margin of the orbit, laterally 2- Lateral border of the nose, medially 3- Inferior lacrimal canaliculus, superiorly and 4- Inferior orbital margin, inferiorly. The needle was introduced in an anteroposterior direction to its half-length and then in an oblique direction to the optical foramen. After negative aspiration, 6-8 ml of local anesthetic solution (lidocaine 2%, hyaluronidase 15 IU / ml ) was injected slowly over about 40 seconds or until the appearance of lid fullness. This was followed by a gentle digital massage to the eyeball to facilitate diffusion of the local anesthetic mixture. |

| Quality of the sensory and motor block | The quality of the sensory and motor block was assessed using the Ocular Anesthesia Scoring System (OASS). Patients were categorized into three groups according to the quality of the block and level of anesthesia achieved: poor (0-3), average (4-9) and good block (10-14) | 6 hours |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Onset and duration of block | The onset of motor block (globe akinesia), sensory block, and lid akinesia (ptosis). Were recorded from the time of injection of (LAS) until complete globe akinesia, a disappearance of sensation, and complete lid akinesia (ptosis). Duration of globe akinesia was recorded till recurrence of muscle movements (score 8). Similarly, the return of sensation to the globe was assessed by digital spear pressure at the limbus. |
