Suprachoroidal injection of triamcinolone acetonide as adjuvant to surgical treatment of epiretinal membrane.
Int J Retina Vitreous
January 2025
Eye Clinic, Department of Medical and Surgical Specialties, Radiological Sciences and Public Health, University of Brescia, 25121, Brescia, Italy.
Background: To analyse the effect of suprachoroidal injection (SChI) of triamcinolone acetonide (TA) on macular thickness (CRT), ectopic inner foveal layer thickness (EIFL-T) and best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) in pseudophakic patients undergoing vitrectomy for epiretinal membrane (iERM) compared to intravitreal injection of TA (IVTA).
Methods: Prospective matched comparison of patients undergoing vitrectomy for Govetto stage 3 and 4 iERM. 25 eyes receiving IVTA (G-1) were compared to 23 eyes receiving SChI-TA (G-2) during vitrectomy.
Dexamethasone Intravitreal Injection in Diabetic Patients Undergoing Cataract Surgery: an updated literature review.
Retina
January 2025
Ophthalmology Clinic, Department of Biomedical Sciences, University of Messina, Italy.
Purpose: This literature review synthetizes current evidence on the timing and efficacy of dexamethasone intravitreal injections for diabetic macular edema (DME) in patients undergoing cataract surgery, particularly phacoemulsification, to determine the optimal timing for improved outcome.
Methods: A systematic review of the literature was conducted across key databases to identify peer-reviewed studies, clinical trials, and meta-analyses addressing dexamethasone injections administered pre-, intra-, and post-operatively for DME in the context of cataract surgery. Studies were selected based on relevance to timing, visual outcomes, and inflammation control, with a focus on comparative efficacy.
Prophylactic barrage laser in patients with previous vitreous loss during cataract surgery: a randomized clinical trial.
BMC Ophthalmol
January 2025
Poostchi Ophthalmology Research Center, Department of Ophthalmology, School of Medicine, Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Shiraz, Iran.
Background: One of the significant challenges that can arise during cataract surgery is the occurrence of posterior capsule rupture (PCR) and vitreous loss. It may result in different complications including cystoid macular edema, endophthalmitis, glaucoma, and considerably retinal detachment which consequently contributes to poor functional outcomes.
Methods: This study was a prospective double blinded randomized clinical trial including 42 patients with previous complicated cataract surgery including posterior capsular rupture and consequently vitreous loss that anterior vitrectomy was done for them.
Cystoid macular edema prophylaxis in cataract surgery: A protocol for network meta-analysis.
PLoS One
December 2024
Department of Surgery, Division of Ophthalmology, McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.
Objective: Cataracts are the leading cause of global preventable and treatable blindness. Cystoid macular edema (CME) is among the most common complications following cataract surgery. The development of CME impacts patients' quality of life and has economic implications for patients and healthcare systems.

Article Synopsis
- Phacoemulsification is the main technique for cataract surgery but can lead to severe complications if lens nuclei are dislodged, traditionally managed through a method that risks retinal damage.
- This study evaluated the OZil phacoemulsification handpiece, which uses torsional movement, to see if it could reduce surgical time and complications compared to the standard phacofragmatome.
- Results showed that the OZil handpiece significantly shortened surgery duration and decreased the occurrence of nucleus dislocation while maintaining similar postoperative outcomes for vision and safety as the traditional method.*
