Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the safety and effectiveness of using an intravitreal dexamethasone implant during cataract surgery for patients with macular edema due to diabetic retinopathy or retinal vein occlusion.
- A total of 24 eyes were evaluated, with significant improvements in visual acuity and a decrease in central macular thickness noted over a median follow-up of 13 months, although some patients experienced recurrence of macular edema.
- The results suggest that this combined surgical approach is generally safe, with no major complications noted, but further research is needed to confirm its long-term benefits.
