Article Synopsis
- - The study looked at how often a problem called clinically significant pseudophakic macular edema (CSPME) happens after a type of eye surgery using a specific lens technique in Belgium.
- - They checked the health records of 2419 adults who had this eye surgery between 2013 and 2018 to find any risk factors that might increase the chance of developing CSPME.
- - The results showed that CSPME was really rare, especially for people without any risk factors, and that certain health issues like kidney problems and eye diseases made it more likely to occur.
Purpose: To determine the incidence of clinically significant pseudophakic cystoid macular edema (CSPME) after phacoemulsification using the bag-in-the-lens intraocular lens (BIL IOL) implantation technique and to examine the influence of associated risk factors, both ocular and systemic.
Setting: Monocentric, Antwerp University Hospital, Belgium.
