De Maria M, et al. - Via identifying 187 prospective trials examining anterior chamber (AC) inflammation after uncomplicated cataract surgery, researchers sought to detect evidence of a relationship between AC inflammation and the risk of pseudophakic cystoid macular edema (CME), thickening of the macula due to leakage and accumulation of fluid in the intracellular spaces, causing blurred or diminished vision. Findings suggested that inflammation assessment after cataract surgery has a potential role to play in predicting the risk of developing CME and may help titrate the duration and intensity of treatment with respect to the inflammatory response to surgery.
