Background: Pseudophakic cystoid macular edema (PCME) is a known complication of cataract surgery that contributes to decreased visual acuity. Mechanical manipulation associated with the release of inflammatory mediators is the leading hypothesis for PCME. To date, no standardized prophylactic protocol has been established to effectively reduce the incidence of PCME. This study assessed the efficacy and safety of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drops (NSAIDs) and corticosteroids for the prevention of PCME.
Method: We searched the following databases MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Central. Register of Controlled Trials and included randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that studied the efficacy of NSAID vs. placebo, NSAID vs. steroid, or NSAID + steroid vs. placebo, reporting the incidence of PCME, macular thickness, and best-corrected visual acuity. The risk ratio (RR) with a 95% confidence interval (CI) and a random-effects model was used. The risk of bias was assessed using the revised Cochrane risk-of-bias tool.
Results: A total of 18 RCTs were included in this study (n = 2959). Nine RCT showed low risk of bias, 7 RCT showed unclear risk of bias, and 2 RCT had high risk of bias. The incidence of cystoid macular edema among patients treated with NSAIDs was significantly lower (RR = 0.33, P < 0.001). Subgroup analysis revealed a statistically significant low risk of edema among patients treated with NSAIDs alone (P < 0.001) compared to others. NSAIDs were associated with significantly low mean corrected visual acuity values using LogMar (P < 0.001).
Conclusion: NSAID alone or in combination with steroids showed its efficacy in reducing the incidence of PCME post-operatively. Future double-blind randomized controlled trials are required to standardize the protocol for different patient population.
