Impartial information needed

The article says "While we keep up with the latest advances in surgical technique, biometry, instrumentation, and technique, it’s important to remember that for every patient the only thing that matters is the final visual outcome. And that requires patients to modulate their healing response by treating post-operative inflammation with a potent, safe, and efficacious NSAID like Bromday." This sounds like a sales pitch that does not belong in Wikipedia. The words "While we keep up" imply that the article was written from the manufacturer's viewpoint, which hardly is an impartial perspective.

I inserted this comment because Bromday was prescribed for me at significant costs, and I wanted to know about alternatives. So an impartial article would have been very useful to me. Paul Abrahams (talk) 17:44, 11 May 2011 (UTC)Paul Abrahams[reply]

"Modern day cataract surgery has evolved into a procedure that is safe, efficient, and minimally invasive, with the ability to restore excellent vision to our patients. The ultimate visual result is a combination of our surgical skill along with the patient’s healing response. And this is where NSAIDs are of benefit: to treat the post-operative inflammation as well as any potential pain after cataract surgery." The tone of this paragraph is so far from neutral that it should be deleted. Stick to the info. Drop the professional cheer leading. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Eyecheck (talk • contribs) 15:25, 7 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. A good portion of this page looks like it was copy/pasted from the manufacturer's sales pitch to health personel. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 8.7.228.252 (talk) 22:46, 25 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
