Abstract: Cystoid macular edema (CME) is a primary cause of reduced vision following both cataract and successful vitreoretinal surgery. The incidence of clinical CME following modern cataract surgery is 0.1-2.35%. Preexisting conditions such as diabetes mellitus and uveitis as well as intraoperative complications can raise the risk of developing CME postoperatively. The etiology of CME is not completely understood. Prolapsed or incarcerated vitreous and postoperative inflammatory processes have been proposed as causati… Show more

“…Despite advances in technique and surgical materials, cystoid macular edema (CME) is the most frequent cause of reduced vision following uneventful modern cataract surgery, with a seemingly rare incidence of 0.1–2.35% for clinically significant CME [6264]. Also known as Irvine-Gass syndrome, it is mainly caused by the accumulation of extracellular fluid within the retina due to leakage from dilated capillaries [1, 16, 63].…”

“…The range of the reported incidence rates is wide (0.10–2.35% for clinically important CME, defined as a retinal thickening within 500 microns of the center of the macula causing a significant vision impairment) [62, 64], which may be due to the different patient populations, cataract stages, surgical techniques, and, particularly, diagnostic methods utilized by the relevant studies. Notably, after small-incision cataract surgery the reported rates of CME range from 9 to 19% based on fluorescein angiography and are as high as 41% as determined by OCT [6668], although clinically important CME is far less common [1, 69].…”

“…After uneventful extracapsular cataract surgery, CME occurs in 0.1–2.35% of all cases (Irvine-Gass syndrome) [35]. However, after opening the vitreolenticular interface, this incidence significantly rises up to 21% in cases of complicated cataract surgery with vitreous loss [36,37].…”

“…Клинически значимый КМО можно выявить уже при оф-тальмоскопии, данная форма сопровождается снижением остроты зрения и обнаруживается в 0,1-2,35% [7,8]; по дан-ным флуоресцентной ангиографии (ФАГ) к концу первого месяца после операции КМО встречается в 16-40% слу-чаев [9]; по данным оптической когерентной томографии (ОКТ) -в 7,5% [10]. Вероятность развития КМО в послеопе-рационном периоде существенно повышается у пациентов группы риска, к которым относятся пациенты с СД.…”
