Cystoid Macular Edema Induced by Low Doses of Nicotinic Acid
Cystoid macular edema (CME) is a condition that involves the macula, causing painless vision loss. In this paper, we report a case of niacin-induced bilateral cystoid macular edema (CME) in a middle-age woman taking low dose of niacin (18 mg of nicotinic acid). Optical coherence tomography (OCT) showed retinal thickening and cystoid spaces in both eyes, whereas fluorescein angiography (FA; HRA ...

We review the epidemiology, pathophysiology, and etiology of cystoid macular edema (CME). Inflammatory, diabetic, post-cataract, and macular edema due to age-related macular degeneration is described. The role of chronic inflammation and hypoxia and direct macular traction is evaluated in each case according to different views from the literature. The different diagnostic methods for evaluating...

Cataract surgery is an efficient procedure, and is generally associated with good visual results. Nevertheless, cystoid macular edema (CME) may develop, and this can result in suboptimal postoperative vision. Many factors are considered to contribute to its development, and although the treatment options depend upon the underlying cause of CME, the usual therapeutic approach for prophylaxis and...
