Macular thickness in patients with pseudoexfoliation syndrome after uneventful phacoemulsification

To evaluate macular thickness in patients with pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PXS) after phacoemulsification.   Materials and methods. 30 patients with PXS (mean age 74.05 ± 5.21 years) and 31 age-matched patients (mean age 71.35 ± 7.51 years) without PXS (control group) were examined to assess macular...

description To evaluate macular thickness in patients with pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PXS) after phacoemulsification.   Materials and methods. 30 patients with PXS (mean age 74.05 ± 5.21 years) and 31 age-matched patients (mean age 71.35 ± 7.51 years) without PXS (control group) were examined to assess macular thickness, which was measured by optical coherence tomography before phacoemulsification, 2 weeks, 2 and 6 months after it.   Results. A significant increase in retinal thickness was noted in patients of both groups in parafovea 2 weeks after phacoemulsification, in parafovea and periphovea after 2 months, and in parafovea after 6 months. At 2 months after surgery, in patients with PXS, the thickness o f the retina in the fovea and perifovea was significantly higher than in the control group; at other times, no difference was observed between the groups.   Conclusion. PXS does not affect macular thickness after phacoemulsification if no intraoperational or postoperational complications took place.
