Latanoprost-Dependent Cystoid Macular Edema Following Uncomplicated Cataract Surgery in Pseudoexfoliative Eyes.

Cystoid macular edema (CME) following uncomplicated phacoemulcification associated with latanoprost is uncommon. OCT-proven CME associated with latanoprost in 3 eyes with pseudoexfoliation after uncomplicated phacoemulcification was reported. Latanoprost was discontinued whereas topical ketorolac was administered. In all cases, CME resolved completely within the following weeks. In one case the re-administration of latanoprost lead to CME recurrence, which was treated with permanent discontinuation of latanoprost. The correlation between latanoprost and CME and the complete resolution of CME following discontinuation of the drug suggest a causative association between latanoprost and CME.
