Sponsor's own description
Cystoid macular edema (CME) is a common cause of vision loss after cataract surgery. In the last few years, several new treatments have been tried to address the problem of CME after cataract surgery in diabetic and non-diabetic patients. The investigators will perform a large RCT with the aim to provide more definite evidence-based recommendations for clinical guidelines to prevent the occurrence of CME after cataract surgery in patients with and without diabetes mellitus (DM).
