Subthreshold micropulse yellow laser for the management of refractory cystoid macular edema consequent to complicated cataract surgery.

Subthreshold micropulse yellow laser seems to be a safe and effective treatment for short-term resolution of refractory pseudophakic cystoid macular edema after complicated cataract surgery and represents a useful alternative to expensive and invasive therapies. A trend towards a longer duration of edema resolution with every subthreshold micropulse yellow laser repetition was observed.
