Sažetak

Cataract surgery is the most performed surgery in modern medicine. Furthermore, diabetes mellitus is related to higher incidence and the earlier onset of cataract compared to a healthy population. As it is a microangiopathic disease, commonly there is a degree of hematoocular barrier damage which makes the patients susceptible to the postoperative drop in eye acuity. The causes of postoperative eye acuity reduction in diabetic patients following uncomplicated cataract surgery are related to the either onset of postoperative cystoid macular oedema or progression of existing diabetic macular oedema.Making the correct diagnosis and ensuring correct and timely therapy, postoperative complications can be succesfully treated.
