Selective laser trabeculoplasty for intraocular pressure elevation after intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide injection.

Purpose: Intravitreal injection of triamcinolone acetonide has increasingly become a therapeutic option for neovascular, inflammatory, and edematous intraocular diseases. A common side effect of this treatment is a steroid-induced elevation of intraocular pressure. In most of these patients, the rise in intraocular pressure can be treated topically.
