Effect of intralenticular dexamethasone implant: A case report.

Introduction: Intravitreal dexamethasone (DEX) implant is indicated for the treatment of macular oedema due to diabetic retinopathy, retinal vein occlusion and uveitis. The most common complications are cataract and elevated intraocular pressure (IOP). Accidental injection of DEX implant into the lens is a rare complication and only few papers presented it.

Continuous Glucose Monitoring-Derived Metrics and Capillary Vessel Density in Subjects with Type 1 Diabetes without Diabetic Retinopathy.

Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) is an innovative and reliable technique detecting the early preclinical retinal vascular change in patients with diabetes. We have designed our study to evaluate whether an independent relationship exists between continuous glucose monitoring (CGM)-derived glucose metrics and OCTA parameters in young adult patients with type 1 diabetes without diabetic retinopathy (DR). Inclusion criteria were age ≥ 18 years, diagnosis of type 1 diabetes from ≥ 1 year, stable insulin treatment in the last three months, use of real-time CGM, and CGM wear time ≥ 70%.
