Abstract
Pseudophakic bullous keratopathy refer to the development of irreversible corneal edema as a complication of cataract surgery. As corneal edema progresses and worsens, first stromal and then intercellular epithelial edema develops. This can cause disrupt vision and create pain sensation. Treatment can include hyperosmotic eye drops to reduce swelling, bandage contact lenses to reduce discomfort, glaucoma medication to reduce the flow of fluid to the cornea, and surgical procedures to replace the damaged tissue.
