ABSTRACT

@#Cataract is the most common blinding eye disease in our country. Cataract phacoemulsification combined with intraocular lens implantation is the first choice for cataract surgery, with advantages of a small incision, mild anterior chamber reaction, repaid recovery and small astigmatism of corneal. However, there are still some patients failed to achieve ideal visual quality after surgery due to various reasons even if the surgery is successful. Cystoid macular edema(CME)is one of the common complications in pseudophakic eyes affecting postoperative visual quality after cataract surgery. Recent studies on pseudophakic cystoid macular edema(PCME)are reviewed in this paper.
