Study aim
-
Determination of changes in macular thickness, determination of changes in patient vision and changes in intraocular pressure (IOP) of the patient in combination therapy with three drops of drazolamide, ketorolac, prednisolone at different times of evaluation
-
Design
-
Sample size was calculated using G Power software for 30 samples.
In this study, there is no control group and therefore there was no need for blinding. The results are compared with the studies in the American book.
-
Settings and conduct
-
All drops are prescribed four times a day. Treatment will continue for up to 2 months after starting treatment. If CME improves before this time, the patient will be examined for up to 8 weeks. The studied variables were patient vision before starting and 2, 4, 8 weeks after starting treatment, IOP before starting and 2, 4, 8 weeks after starting treatment and macular thickness before starting treatment and 2, 4 and 8 weeks after patients will be monitored for side effects from the time of medication and will be excluded from the study in case of any side effects such as drug allergies.
-
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
-
Inclusion criteria: CME patient after uncomplicated cataract surgery, completing the informed consent form to participate.
Exclusion criteria: Patients with diabetic retinopathy, retinal and vascular patients and patients with macular disorders are excluded from the study to control confounding variables. Patients with severe renal insufficiency, hepatic insufficiency, etc. are excluded from the study.
-
Intervention groups
-
Patients with macular edema after cataract surgery without complications of surgery with derzolamide, ketorolac, prednisolone drops
-
Main outcome variables
-
Thickness of the macular center before starting treatment, 2 weeks after starting treatment, 4 weeks after starting treatment, 8 weeks after starting treatment
