Microvascular Changes after Epiretinal Membrane Vitrectomy with Intraoperative Intravitreal Dexamethasone Implant: An OCT Angiography Analysis.

We aimed to explore microvascular changes evaluated with optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) in patients undergoing epiretinal membrane (ERM) pars-plana vitrectomy (PPV) combined with intravitreal Ozurdex implantation, compared with standard PPV. (2) Methods: Prospective interventional analysis on 25 eyes undergoing PPV + Ozurdex (Group A) and 25 eyes undergoing PPV alone. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and OCTA parameters, such as vessel density (VD) of the superficial and deep capillary plexi (SCP and DCP) in the whole 6.

Evaluation of ocular surface following PreserFlo Microshunt implantation: Functional outcomes and quality of life.

Background: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of PreserFlo Microshunt on the ocular surface, focusing on both objective and subjective parameters.

Methods: Prospective-observational study on 48 eyes undergoing PreserFlo Microshunt implantation, standalone or combined with phacoemulsification. At baseline, 1-month, 6-months and 12-months post-operative follow-ups, we performed Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) questionnaire, Schirmer's test (ST), Tear-film break-up time (TBUT), fluoresceine staining (FS), tear osmolarity and minimum corneal epithelial thickness (Epi-Thk ) measurements.
