Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Comparison of central foveal thickness outcomes of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor vs. Ozurdex therapy
Central foveal thickness will be measured in microns by spectral domain optical coherence tomography (Heidelberg) and compared to baseline at post-operative week 1, postoperative month 1, postoperative month 2, and postoperative month 3 for both anti-vascular endothelial growth factor and Ozurdex groups

Secondary Outcome Measures

Visual acuity outcomes of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor vs. Ozurdex therapy
Snellen visual acuity will be measured and converted into logMAR and compared to baseline at post-operative week 1, postoperative month 1, postoperative month 2, and postoperative month 3 for both anti-vascular endothelial growth factor and Ozurdex groups

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The primary objective of this study is to compare the efficacy of antecedent intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor therapy vs. Ozurdex in reducing post-cataract surgery related macular edema in patients with pre-existing diabetic macular edema.
Detailed Description
In patients with pre-existing diabetic macular edema, anti-vascular endothelial growth factor therapy (Bevacizumab, ranibizumab, or aflibercept) will be compared to Ozurdex therapy administered 1 week prior to phacoemulsification cataract extraction. Spectral domain optical coherence tomography and visual acuity will be acquired at 1 week, 1 month, 2 months, and 3 months following cataract surgery.
