Post-cataract Prevention of Inflammation and Macular Edema by Steroid and Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory Eye Drops

Abstract: We found low to moderate quality of evidence that topical NSAIDs are more effective in controlling postoperative inflammation after cataract surgery. We found high-quality evidence that topical NSAIDs are more effective than topical steroids in preventing PCME. The use of topical NSAIDs was not associated with an increased events. We recommend using topical NSAIDs to prevent inflammation and PCME after routine cataract surgery.

“…Even still, there are no evidence-based guidelines for the treatment of Irvine-Gass syndrome, several studies have reported signi icant reductions in the macular edema with the topical therapy, after cataract surgery [11][12][13][14]. Combination therapy with topical NSAID and corticosteroidis signi icantly more effective than only corticosteroid in treatment of Irvine-Gass syndrome [15]. But the presented patient did not well respond to topical therapy in terms of improving his BCVA and reduction ofCME at SD-OCT, so further intervention was needed.…”

НПВС также подтвердили свою эффективность при исполь-зовании у больных СД.…”
