Clinical pseudophakic cystoid macular edema. Risk factors for development and duration after treatment.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of treatment regimens on visual outcome and duration of CME after cataract surgery were investigated and the incidence of post-operative CME was 2.35% (39/1659).

Risk factors for development and duration after treatment

TL;DR: A history of RVO, ERM, and preoperative prostaglandin use were associated with an increased risk for pseudophakic CME and treatment with NSAIDs plus steroids was associated with faster resolution of CME than no treatment.

Analysis of macular edema after cataract surgery in patients with diabetes using optical coherence tomography.

TL;DR: Diabetic eyes have a high incidence of increased center point thickness on OCT after cataract surgery, associated with a loss of vision at 1 month, with limited visual recovery at 3 months, and treatment to prevent this might improve outcomes in similar individuals after surgery.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cystoid macular edema.

TL;DR: The goal of this paper is to review the current status of this treatment for macular edema due to diabetic maculopathy, central retinal vein occlusion and post-cataract surgery and the results of recent multicenter clinical trials are quoted.

Cystoid macular edema and papilledema following cataract extraction. A fluorescein fundoscopic and angiographic study.

TL;DR: The pattern of fluorescence following intravenous injection of fluorescein is diagnostic and provides the clinician with a valuable means of detecting the lesion, which may be difficult to see by other means.

Prevention of cystoid macular edema after lens extraction by topical indomethacin (I). A preliminary report.

TL;DR: Topically administered indomethacin was found to reduce the occurrence of cystoid macular edema after lens extraction as mentioned in this paper, which suggests that prostaglandins play a leading role in the development of this disorder.

Differential spectral photic damage to primate cones

TL;DR: In this article, Histo-pathology of cones in a blue-blinded retina was compared with cytochemical labeling of short-wavelength cones, revealing that they follow a similar distribution: are sparse in the foveola.
