This is the first clinical study to validate an objective method of reporting postsurgical cystoid macular edema (CME). The results of this study may lead to a more standardized method of reporting CME that would enable direct comparison of outcomes among different studies.

This is the first clinical study to prospectively evaluate the incidence of CME in diabetic patients after cataract surgery using optical coherence tomography. This article correlates severity of baseline diabetic retinopathy with postoperative CME and uncovers several other risk factors which may allow more targeted prophylaxis.
