Pseudophakic Cystoid Macular Edema
ثبت نشده
چکیده
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 treatment of CME is directed towards blocking the inflammatory mediators. This article provides a review of possible risk factors, pathogeneses, incidence rates, and methods of diagnosis, as well as the current guidelines for managing CME. Copyright © 2011 S.
