The study was a post-hoc analysis of a randomized, double-blind, prospective single-center study. Patients were enrolled between January 2016 and October 2016 as per the national guidelines for the management of cataract in the Department of Ophthalmology, Kymenlaakso Central Hospital, Kotka, Finland.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>One hundred and fifty-six eyes of 149 patients undergoing routine cataract surgery. Postoperatively anti-inflammatory medication was either dexamethasone (N\u2009=\u200978) or diclofenac (N\u2009=\u200978). Spectral domain optical coherence tomography imaging and laser flare meter measurement of the anterior chamber were conducted before surgery and at the control visit 28\u2009days postoperatively.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Baseline variables were comparable between eyes with pseudoexfoliation syndrome (N\u2009=\u200932) and those without (N\u2009=\u2009124), except for intraocular pressure ( P\u2009=\u20090.002) and glaucoma medication ( P\u2009&lt;\u20090.001). In patients having pseudoexfoliation syndrome, central retinal thickness increase (mean\u2009\u00b1\u2009standard error of the mean) was 63.3\u2009\u00b1\u200935.5\u2009\u03bcm for dexamethasone and 17.6\u2009\u00b1\u20095.8\u2009\u03bcm for diclofenac, compared to 28.9\u2009\u00b1\u20098.0\u2009\u03bcm ( P\u2009=\u2009NS) and 6.9\u2009\u00b1\u20091.3\u2009\u03bcm ( P\u2009=\u20090.014) in eyes without pseudoexfoliation syndrome, respectively.
