Response - NO
Brief Summary   Pseudophakic cystoid macular edema (PCME) is one of the common complication following catarct surgery with incidence asa high as 18%.

The emergence of OCT has provided a quick and non invasive means of diagnosis of PCME.

To prevent the production of prostaglandins and decrease the inflammatory effects, we routinely use NSAID’’s in the post operative period.

There are many studies , suggesting the effect of 0.1% nepafenac and 0.3% separately in the prevention of PCME.But there are no studies comparing 0.1% and 0.3 % nepafenac in the prevention of PCME.

Hence the purpose of my study is to compare the effect of 0.1% versus 0.3% nepafenac  in the prevention of pseudophakic cystoid macular edema by measuring macular and choroidal thickness by means of OCT and assessing the visual outcome after cataract surgery in diabetic patients.
