Abstract
One of the serious vision threatened complications of cataract surgery is refractory PCME. That is why this complication has to be managed in time and adequately. Non steroidal and steroidal antiinflammatory and anti VEGF agents like bevazicumab are useful for refractory PCME. OCT has an important role in detecting PCME and measurement of central macular thickness to control the treatment of PCME. In this case study patient after rutin uncomplicated FACO surgery with refractory PCME at postop 4-th week is described. Despite of using of topical NSAID+steroidal antiinflammatory treatment there was no improvement in decreased vision and CMT was remained stable increased (811 mmk). Vision was increased only after 2 week of i/v bevazicumab injection, macular edema resolved and CMT decreased (280 mmk) which was revealed by OCT. In conclusion, OCT quided i/v bevacizumab is safe and well tolerated treatment option for refractory PCME.
