Review of anterior chamber bleeding after cataract extraction in diabetic patients with and without Premarin treatment.

Abstract

Three groups of 30 patients each were studied for frequency and severity of anterior chamber bleeding up to 5 days postcataract extraction. One group consisted of diabetic patients receiving Premarin treatment, one group of diabetics without Premarin treatment, and the third of nondiabetic patients. There seems to be less bleeding frequency and especially less bleeding severity in Premarin-treated diabetic patients.
