Pathogenesis of Pseudophakic Cystoid Macular Oedema
Cystoid macular oedema (CMO) is a primary cause of reduced vision after cataract surgery even after uneventful surgery. The incidence of clinical CMO following modern cataract surgery is 1.0–2.0 % but the high number of surgeries performed worldwide makes this entity an important problem. Pre-existing conditions such as diabetes and intra-operative complications increase the risk of developing ...
متن کاملCystoid macular oedema with trypan blue use.
We present a large comparative series of trypan blue use in cataract surgery. This series of trypan blue used in all eyes regardless of cataract severity may be unique. We found an apparent increased rate of cystoid macular oedema (CMO) associated with trypan blue use. Melles et al’s report on the use of trypan blue in cataract extraction in 1999 combined with Apple et al’s series on dye enhanc...
متن کاملElectrophysiological assessment of aphakic cystoid macular oedema.
Focal electroretinograms (FERG), pattern electroretinograms (PERG), and visual evoked potentials (VEP) were studied in a group of 30 aphakic patients with cystoid macular oedema (ACME). When compared with a control group of age-matched aphakics, 35% of patients were found to have abnormal FERG responses and 53%--over half of whom had normal FERG responses--showed abnormal PERG amplitudes. Altho...
متن کاملLatanoprost and cystoid macular edema: is there a causal relation?
Published reports of the occurrence of cystoid macular edema (CME) in eyes being treated with latanoprost have led to concern regarding a possible causal relation between the two. Review of all published cases (28 eyes in 25 patients), plus another case reported here for the first time, indicates that all eyes had independent risk for development of CME, so that definitive conclusions about a c...
