Diabetic patients are at increased risk of cataracts, with higher risks of intraoperative and postoperative complications. Therefore, it is of interest to explore the challenges in performing cataract surgery on diabetic patients. Hence, a prospective study of 300 Type II diabetes patients undergoing cataract surgery found that 69.3% achieved post-operative visual acuity of 6/18 or better. Common complications included iritis (9.7%) and striate keratopathy (7.7%). The severity of diabetic retinopathy, diabetic macular edema, and poor preoperative visual acuity were linked to worse postoperative outcomes. Intravitreal steroids may improve outcomes in patients with diabetic macular edema.
糖尿病患者患白内障的风险增加,术中及术后并发症风险更高。因此,探讨对糖尿病患者进行白内障手术的挑战具有重要意义。因此,一项对300例接受白内障手术的II型糖尿病患者的前瞻性研究发现,69.3%的患者术后视力达到6/18或更好。常见并发症包括虹膜炎(9.7%)和条纹状角膜病变(7.7%)。糖尿病视网膜病变的严重程度、糖尿病黄斑水肿和术前视力差与术后预后较差有关。玻璃体内注射类固醇可能改善糖尿病黄斑水肿患者的预后。
