TI  - Spectral Domain OCT Documented Resolution of Pseudophakic Cystoid Macular Edema 
      after Intravitreal Triamcinolone.
PG  - 1-4
AB  - Cystoid macular edema (CME) is an important cause of visual loss after cataract 
      surgery. Treatment is usually with topical anti-inflammatory agents, with 
      anti-vascular endothelial growth factor agents and steroids used intravitreally 
      in resistant cases. Even though time-domain Stratus OCT can quantify the macular 
      thickness, it cannot prognosticate visual outcomes due to the poor resolution of 
      images, especially the outer segment-inner segment junction. Spectral-domain OCT 
      (SD-OCT) by its ability to acquire large number of images in a short span of time 
      provides high resolution cross-sectional images of the retina, which not only 
      highlights the underlying pathological changes, but in addition can prognosticate 
      visual recovery. We describe pre and post SD-OCT features of a case of refractory 
      CME who was treated with intravitreal triamcinolone actetonide.
