Incidence and Remission of Post-Surgical Cystoid Macular Edema Following Cataract Surgery in Eyes With Intraocular Inflammation.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To evaluate the incidence, remission, and relapse of post-surgical cystoid macular edema (PCME) following cataract surgery in inflammatory eye disease.

Methods

A total of 1859 eyes that had no visually significant macular edema prior to cataract surgery while under tertiary uveitis management were included. Standardized retrospective chart review was used to gather clinical data. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression models with adjustment for inter-eye correlations were performed.

Results

PCME causing VA 20/50 or worse was reported in 286 eyes (15%) within 6 months of surgery. Adults age 18-64 years as compared to children (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 2.42, for ages 18 to 44 years and aOR = 1.93 for ages 45 to 64 years, overall P = .02); concurren
